New Hampshire Has Everything Young People Want ... So Why Are They Leaving? (Portsmouth Parking UPROAR, Seacoast Housing Crisis & More!)
Pres. by
The future of New Hampshire is at stake.
Luckily, brilliant young minds are on the case for building a better New Hampshire.
In a rare roundtable discussion, popular past guests Corinne Benfield (Stay Work Play) and Andrew Samonas (Samonas Realty) join host Troy Farkas to discuss a number of topics, including the recent Portsmouth parking controversy and its effect on the local workforce, why a shortage of affordable childcare is causing big problems for families across the state, Gen Z's experience of navigating the workforce in the age of artificial intelligence, and how, weeks after a $16 million home sale in Hampton , the Seacoast's leaders are thinking about tackling the ongoing housing crisis.
