But as far as Water and Sewerage. I prefer a Well and Septic. Towns rip you off on that service. I have Septic in MA with a sewer line going right by. It would cost a fortune just for the permit, never mind the actual work. And once hooked up they double your water bill.
I grew up in a town that had no town sewer. Every house was on their own septic system. If they ran sewer by my house and offered a free hookup I would have said no. Pumping the tank every 5 years or so at a cost of about $200 was way cheaper.

In Gilford we have town sewer and I use water from the lake. The quarterly sewer bills are only in the $90 range. Free water and low sewer bills are a great deal.
