I've had life long friends who live in the Upper Valley and been visiting there since I was a kid since growing up not far from there.
It's a great place to raise a family. It's proximity to I89, I91, and I93 give you so many options for travelling. I take the Hanover express bus alot into South Station Boston that is near the Hostel when I want a big city excursion. The express also goes to Logan and Manchester airports. It's cheap way to travel.
I love the recreation that is close by. Killington and Okemo, the clean water of Lake Fairlee. The CT River Valley. Clean living for sure. King Arthur Flour, the microbreweries, Montshire Museum, VINS, Queechee Gorge, Woodstock VT, Quebec City, Boston, all within minutes to less than 2 hours from that location.
There are many amazing places to eat cheap and otherwise, whippy dip haha look it up. Farmstands and Farmers market. It biggest drawback is you do have to become a hearty new englander. It's easy though!
