New Hampshire's famous motto is “Live Free or Die," and residents here are largely free of the fear of crime, with the third-lowest violent-crime rate in the nation. The future is bright, with America’s lowest child-poverty rate. And strong antidiscrimination laws help ensure that everyone shares those freedoms. In this quiet corner of New England, quality of life is solid.
