    "Stores are close by and easy to get to. The only problem is no public transportation until you go to Plaistow. "

    "quiet peaceful town with lots of beauty and nature, parks, etc. Great school system and great place to raise a family."
  • Susan S.
    "Hampstead is predominantly a residential community. There are good schools, easy access to highways and shopping nearby and in neighboring towns. Our neighborhood is wooded, though each home has distinctive landscaping. The neighbors are quiet and friendly. The traffic is minimal as the three streets are cul-de-sacs. It is a great area for nature, with lots of birds, small animals and occasional deer."
  • Dawn M. C.
    "Hampstead is a beautiful town with a fantastic school system. Yes it may be lacking in public transportation and nightlife, but it has so much more. Family's that get involved with the community and children and extracurricular activities. Hampstead has beautiful lakes to swim, fish, and boat. All and all just a fantastic postcard town."
