NH is so ridiculously expensive that people here live in their homes for DECADES. (And yeah, generally the homeowners are older) They’re probably still alright with the ceiling fan they picked out 40 years ago. Where are you from that you’re seeing tons of updated homes everywhere you look? We don’t have that kind of space for new construction and most people don’t have the income for major updates.

Everywhere in the eastern US megalopolis is expensive. Move to central Indiana. You can get a great house for $100k

It's a fine place to live. There are just no good jobs.

That sounds like a bad place to live if you need a job

Right now, I'm in a mid-Atlantic state. But I've also lived in several states in the south (bible belt). Homes there are also pretty old, but I think there are different reasons why. Every place in the US is different and has unique challenges. For example, I know it gets cold af in NH. Hence, ensuring your property is properly winterized is probably a higher priority than granite countertops or that nice LED lighting under the cabinets.

No, your mom came over and helped give me the encouragement I needed to figure it out. She's a fantastic life coach.

Grow up. If you dont like it then dont buy a house up here. You sound like a douche bag anyway based on your reactions to people’s responses here.
