The outskirts of Franklin are fine. The downtown is questionable. There's a heck of a lot of drugs in the Franklin/Tilton/Laconia area. Those towns & that city were always gritty, but were essentially working class places....these day, not so much. Large welfare populations now.

Welfare is associated with Democratic demographics. Yet Laconia and Franklin went red this year. I don't know about Tilton but it probably did as well.

The Lakes Region has always been a GOP stronghold, even with the continuing problems those towns are facing. Old voting habits die hard.
That doesn't mean anything. If the Lakes Region cities and towns were even only slightly Republican instead of heavily, NH would likely be solid blue instead of a purple state (or light blue, as NH hasn't gone red since 2000). Most blue states have plenty of red areas, but it doesn't mean much if those counties are low population as opposed to the blue.

It seems to be pretty standard throughout the country that the urban areas are blue and everywhere else is red. It makes sense but doesn't seem right those geographically small but dense areas force everyone else to be "blue".

Yes, typically the urban areas are more liberal and the rural more conservative. If that were always true, though, Vermont would be very, very conservative, and we know that's not true.
Oh please, there's more heroin in keene than Laconia. Dont even start that leftist lie with me implying liberal areas are drug free and conservatives are all strung out.
I don't think an episode of cops has ever been filmed in a Republican run city, ever.
All the third world toilets of this nation are run by liberals. Every. Single. One.

... Okay. I'm Not sure who your talking to (didn't reply to anyone) but BraveStranger is the one who commented on how Laconia is a welfare city. We aren't talking about drugs or what city has the most heroin. But since you brought it up, I'm not sure I believe that Keene has more heroin than Laconia. I find it unlikely, but if you have evidence then present it.
