I moved to Manchester from a few larger cities and I wish it had more to offer. I have hope that it will develop into something nice. Just wishing the homeless/drug situation improved and there were things like these:

-smaller music venue than SNHU -hockey team -conversion of a factory to something like Ponce City Market in Atlanta -a more bikeable/walkable river walk with greenery and art that allows you to access restaurants, breweries, coffee shops and affordable housing
