in Northern New England, and has changed to a hi-tech,
service economy. There is also the Mall of New Hampshire
here, and the redevelopment of the historic Amoskeag
Millyard as a shopping mall as well.New Hampshire has been a
leading outdoor playground for the Eastern United States,
with lots of ski resorts in the winter, and parks lakes,
rivers and a seashore for the warmer months. These are
things to consider for your New Hampshire Incorporation.

season over the Memorial Day weekend.

most outstanding ones being Crawford Notch State Park, a

New Hampshire?s one port is Portsmouth, on the Piscataqua
River. This also includes part of, and borders the
Portsmouth Naval Yard in Maine. Hampton Beach is a popular
local summer destination. About 10 miles (16 km) offshore
are the Isles of Shoals, nine small islands.

New Hampshire becomes more heavily forested as you go north,
with the North Country portion of the state relatively
unpopulated. This is the area north of the passes in the
White Mountains. While these areas have lost their paper
and logging industries, they are still strong in the winter
skiing business. With the state being over 80-percent
forests, there is a lot of wildlife both to hunt and to see.
From deer, to bears, to river otter, the wildlife is quite
abundant. Wildlife is one of New Hampshire's greatest
natural resources. More than 300 species of fish, birds,
mammals, reptiles and amphibians make their home in the
state.

New Hampshire has significant production of dairy
products,and eggs. Its industrial outputs are machinery, and
electric equipment. The other major ?industry? occurs every
four years, when New Hampshire has the first general ballot
primary in the U.S. Presidential Election. Despite other
states squeezing to be early, New Hampshire is determined to
be the first ballot box state. The state has no general
sales tax, no personal income tax except for on dividends
and interest, putting it totally in the laissez-faire column
on business taxes. There is a state-wide property tax, but
still overall taxes are lower than any other state except
Alaska.

New Hampshire has had to adjust to the closing of its old
industries. Many mill buildings are now shopping malls.
The state is a great place for skiing, the outdoors... and
politics.
