Everyone's tax situation is somewhat different, you should consult with your tax adviser, your mileage may vary, etc., etc.
But, my parents were/are NH residents with property in FL. My dad, who was pretty savvy on these things, researched the pros and cons of residence and taxes in each state. I've been managing their finances for the past several years and have concluded the same.
Namely (and in general), the two states are similar in their treatment of retirees and estates. While there are differences, and some benefits in some areas over others, the tax and financial choices between the states are close.
In general and given the choice, you should choose where your heart and mind are most comfortable.
They chose NH :-)
