Why does the North East have so much SOVL bros? Vermont and New Hampshire are the best states I've ever been to in this country.

The Northeast is older, more traditional, and a lot more communal than the rest of the country, on top of having some beautiful nature. Unlike the faux-nice southerners we actually care about our fellow citizens, which is why we enjoy a standard of living comparable to western European countries.

>which is why we enjoy a standard of living comparable to western European countries.
Oh, you mean the standard of widespread urbanization, small and severely limited batches of forest that are crowded, hunting laws designed to stop you from actually hunting, high crime rates in the metropolitan areas, smog, pollution, and an abundance of immigrants that were mysteriously shipped in to the big cities?
Yeah I'd say the northeast and Europe are similar.

Best hiking in the country in terms of sheer amount of trails and views. In my opinion anyways. I've been going through the Notch and tackling those trails and still haven't scratched the surface of what this state has to offer.

I love northern New England, I really do. But the land is basically ruined by snow and mosquitoes. There's only like 2 months out of the year where outdoor activities are actually enjoyable. Hunting is a total shit show too, wild game populations for every species are very low. The Adirondacks are better, but then you have to deal with NY gun laws and taxes.

1. I always carry a gun when hunting so fucking try it. By law I can kill you to protect my property.
2. Shooting a collared hunting dog on public hunting grounds with owner on site is very illegal and comes with a whopping fine and potentially jail time
3. In civil court I would rape you for the price of a new puppy and training fees which would amount to about $4500 for the dog plus my pain and suffering and I love the little dork
4. None of this matters because I keep my dog leashed like a fucking adult unless he is on said public land where it is legally protected because I’m not a douchebag
5. It especially doesn’t matter because you’re an impotent little faggot that won’t do shit anyway

New Englanders are a different breed. I was up there with my wife for Thanksgiving to visit her relatives, and I accidentally backed into a guy at a Cumberland Farms, and he didn't even care. I dented in his door and he told me that it was just his winter beater and calling the cops and filing a claim wasn't worth the time. Couldn't believe it. Everyone up there is friendly, not high strung, and hard working. We might move up next year if I can find work. Beautiful small towns to raise a family.

My hometown was destroyed during King Philips War. They burned all the houses and slaughtered all the English they could get their hands on. Babies were scalped, livestock had their bellies cut open so they died slowly dragging their entrails around, men and women had both their hands and feet cut off and left marooned deep in the wilderness and writhe in the mud and be prayed upon by wild animals.

The panic that swept the Bay Colony as every town and outpost were left in ashes one after the other was palpable. They even considered building a gigantic stockade around Boston and commence evacuation of the colony.

It took another generation or two to safely rebuild all the destroyed towns. It's quite a heavy history New England springs out of, with two opposing forces literally committing genocide against each other. I feel it every winter. An entire forest fortification of over 1000 Indians was burned in the dead of winter roasting almost all of them, and the weather was so brutal that most of militia died of hypothermia or lost limbs to frostbite on the long return march. Fucking nightmare.

The beauty of the landscape in every season is something I can never tire of, but god damn it's a brutal place to survive if you don't have modern comforts or you are stuck in an existential struggle.

Vermont is like 97% white, don’t get me wrong there’s plenty of immigrants in Burlington, but most of them are Nepali or Indian and they tend to really blend in with everyone else.

>>2713853
the most horrific stories I've heard from travel nurses come from the rural south where people get sick from eating armadillo and roadkill, where they have to cut the sheet meta of the trailers to get to the 600lbs corpses before they explode in the heat (if it's too close to the end of the month, they don't get reported so someone can steal the last disability check), the smells of the gangrene and infections from untreated diabetics and people who can't afford replacement catheters, and worse.

given America is a pinnacle of humanity and development (except for NE), I can only shudder to imagine how much worse it is in Europe.

Burlington's been getting enriched for the past couple decades.
Went to school in the late 2000's there and there were no black people except a few hundred somali refugee families who weren't too much trouble at the time. Their kids grew up while continuously enriching the place. Now there's legit black people shooting and robbing people.
Also, all of the libertarian-leading hippy liberals turned into woke authoritarians.
However, the state overall is still extremely comfy. It's removed enough from any major city that it's sort of its own little world. Also, NH and Maine soak up most of the summer tourism, so VT doesn't feel overrun during the summer.
