Moving to Manchester ASAP Where to rent?

Hello, I'm moving to Manchester ASAP, looking to be there by the end of the month.

What are some good apartments for 1b/1b to rent. I want stuff like In Unit Laundry and I want fiber internet for sure and Heating and Cooling. Which apartments would be considered modern/luxury types that will be comfy and safe to live in and nearby.

It's also worth mentioning, I don't own a car, so a place that is close to places where I can buy food and shop would be ideal, or at least a place where the distance is okay enough to uber.

Ultimate Frisbee?

Hi all. I'm moving to Manchester next month and I really enjoyed playing Ultimate Frisbee, I would love to play when I get here. Can anyone point me in the direction of the right club or organization? I'm also open to other sports for the social aspect like kickball or pickleball. Also, if I was to start a pickup league, where would be the best place to post about it on FB?

And the best kettle cooked chips are???

Wrap City Potato Chip Company made in Derry! I've tasted pretty much everything out there and these are amazing! Get them at their sandwich shops or Shaw's. I prefer the Sea Salt to their regular which has some sweetness to it

These chips are on the thicker side making for a great crunch! The potato flavor really comes through!

If you have another local kettle chip suggestion then I'm happy to try and compare.

Please recommend honest vet in Manchester

hi there,

Im new to Manchester and I need a vet for my dog (she's healthy). I'm aware that most vet practices are now owned by corporations and they tend to push a lot of unneeded and unwanted interventions. Can anybody recommend a vet practice that they believe to be honest? My last vet was probably also one of the last vets in private practice - and I trusted the ethics. of the practice.

thank you

Hello! a question to those who lived or are around the elmwood gardens area

Hello! sorry if my english is bad, it’s not my first language and i believe this is my first post in this community so hello all :) i used to live in manchester NH when i was a child (from as long as i could remember up until summer 2014 was when I moved states, i am 21 now.) i lived in the elmwood gardens more specifically Ahern street.

I remember i had a small garden with a shack and if i walked towards a hill there was this one abandoned looking road where no cars would pass by. it was dead silent! it always creeped me out but i was always intrigued by it. i was wondering if that road is still silent to this day, or if there were any cars passing by.

it’s been weighing on my conscious for years now and i just want some closure so little-me could be happy hahaha. if you guys aren’t certain about it maybe i can give more details, my memory is still a blur but i’ll try!

Anyone know the maximum allowable amount a landlord can charge you for a lost building key?

I just want to say please I'd really appreciate it if you are going to answer with an anecdote or an assumption of you how feel things should work, I'm really looking for a factual source on what city/state law says on this. I tried to find it but I can't, but I'm hoping someone can point me in the right direction.

I've been trying to research the rules around this and my conclusion is it varies by state, but I can't find NH's rules. Like assume they're as vindictive as possible, what are they allowed to do?

I'm fine with paying even a couple hundred bucks for this, I'm just worried they're going to do something crazy like say "we have to change all the locks in the building and replace everyone elses key now and itll be at your expense"

Just trying to decide just how hard I'm gunna look for my key before simply emailing them.

Auto Shop Recommendations

Hello,

I'm looking to see what shops people around Manchester go to for their auto work needs. I've gone to DMR auto for a while now, but I've only ever needed small things done such as oil changes and tire rotations. Now it's getting time to replace my break pads. My rotors show some wear, but I'm comfortable using them for a while longer, so I just want to have the pads replaced. DMR said they would only replace the pads and rotors together.

Does anyone recommend a shop that would replace just the pads or is this something I'm going to need to do myself? Bonus points of they let me buy and bring replacement pads myself

Thanks for the help everyone

HELP

Hello i have a serious question. I went to Auto Fair Ford in Manchester NH. I got a 2019 Ford Ecosport apparently the only car that the Santander bank can approve my wife and I for. They want $1000 down haven't paid that yet until payday. We have had it for just over a week. I called Auto Fair last night and explained that I have 4 kids and my wife and I will all need to have a car big enough for all of us. I went back into Auto Fair this morning and tried to see if I can do a trade in for something bigger. They said they can't do anything until I give them the $1000 down payment to finalize everythiny and then they can use the car as a trade in and to see what they can do to get me into a bigger car. So I called my dad who use to be a car salesman and he said that they will F*ck me and make it so I'm upside down in payments and that i will be negative? Am I screwed or am i able to get something bigger? Auto Fair said i am still within my 30 day timeline. If anyone knows anything or a car salesman that is legit please message me.

Best cell and internet for wfh

I’m at exit 13 off Everett near the airport. I have comcast for internet at $125/month and Verizon for cell service at $94/month. Just me, no family or anything. I also don’t get cable, truly just internet.

Fidium doesn’t provide in my area.

T-Mobile might do everything but i experienced bad service in places in Manchester (in restaurants and stores).

Any other providers people know of?

I’m just at a loss of if i should switch to so i can work from home but still try to save.

Manchester NH discord server

I have been here for the longest time and one of my biggest complaints is not being able to meet new people around my age, this state has a lot of oldiesX and on alot of online apps I just can’t find anyone from around here.

I decided to take things into my own hands and make a New Hampshire based discord server, it is based around Manchester, the Queen city, but has roles for every county and channels that suit every one’s needs, from photography of our beautiful scenery to gaming channels where people might wanna hang out and play games.

The target audience is young adults so ages 16 to 26, but the server is inclusive of all people of all ages. We already have about 70 members or so, and I plan to do some heavy advertising all out the city and state. I hope to see you guys and you can join from the link below.

Watching the Board of Mayor & Alderman Meeting

I just gotta say - Alderman Levasseur rubs me the wrong way and I'm not a fan. He comes off as cocky, and rude, and openly holds conversations with other aldermen while his contituents are speaking during public participation. It's maddening.

Art Deco (underground) park rest rooms

I am looking for information on a set of men’s and women’s rest rooms from the early 1900’s (now closed) that are located in a Manchester park (Veterans?).

I seem to remember a news article in the union Leader from many years ago about these rest rooms. They were closed many decades ago but are in very good condition.

Thank you!

Chicken fingers: Puritan vs Goldenrod. Those who have had both, please chime in

WMUR said GR is 3rd in the state and as usual, Puritan is first. I'm not sure if this is because there are more Puritan fanboys who would never look elsewhere for a better chicken finger. I really need to try GR to have a fair vote. I welcome your well informed vote especially if you are a fan of tendeys and have had both!

Best places in Manchester to live?

Hi! I’m currently scoping out places to live as I plan to move either to PVD or Manchester NH in 2027. What are the best neighborhoods that would be affordable and also where do you recommend looking, because Zillow and apartments.com don’t have many listings in my projected budgets. For reference I’m moving from Texas and my main concerns are affordability and LGBTQ+ friendly. TYIA!!

Edit: thank you guys. You actually made me realize that maybe New England isn’t the best for me at this point in life lol.
