Portsmouth is a great city, but knowing that it's also considered the most walkable in New Hampshire makes it even more lovable.
We love the city year-round, but warm weather makes it even more walkable. Any time of year you'll see residents walking to and from work, another factor in naming it the most walkable city in the state.

Michelle has lived in many places, but counts Maine as one of the best. In addition to the smell of ocean water in the air on rainy days in Portland, she loves puppies, photography, funny people, the Maine Red Claws, traveling, fresh tomatoes, Cambodia and filling out forms.
