There are still a few lots that can be found on the older streets but you need a good local realtor to find them. Another consideration is town water and sewer.
Amen to the south side. We have been focusing our search in that area because of the commute.

Regarding the wet lands, I have passed on some very nice lots in decent areas because of the wet lands issue. I am not sure if NH is as restrictive as Mass with respect to wet lands, but with so much land for sale, I just don't want the hassle.

BTW, some lots have town water and some have both town water and sewer. If either or both are available, does the town require a new house be hooked up to the municipal system(s)? The Town's water and sewer rates seem reasonable, but how stable have their prices been?
