New Hampshire is now officially part of the "senior tsunami," says the Hartford
Courant. The term, coined by rock star demographer Bill Frey, is shorthand for growth of pre-senior -- read, boomer -- populations "in economically dynamic Sun Belt" plus scenic and culturally attractive coastal and rural areas. Writer Rinker Buck
says in New Hampshire it means increase in liberal Democrats -- but whatever their party they've got to live somewhere, such as in cities like Portsmouth. Real estate agent Joe Leddy tells me this modern 2-story
waterfront Cape in nearby Dover -- under $400,000-- is typical of Boomer appeal in Southern NH.
