Those of us that loved this area for its rural character are becoming dinosaurs, as the area turns into densely developed suburbs.

Before Covid I would have agreed with the Peak Winnipesaukee, sentiment. However Since Covid, more people are working from home, which is allowing for more location diversity..... Folks have been able to sell their homes in the City, and move to more desirable locations...... I have a fairly flexible job myself... next summer I will be spend almost a Month, living at my camp on Winni, because of the freedom allowed with tele-commuting.
Bottom line, as long as companies allow for remote working options, we will see once largely recreational communities growing, and becoming more populated. Especially an area like Winni, where Boston is a fairly easy drive when needed in the office.
