The Eagle Tribune is a MA based daily newspaper that services the MA Merrimack Valley, Essex County, MA and parts of southern New Hampshire.

Read the list here. http://www.eagletribune.com/newhampshire/x335464263/603-Reasons

Here are just a few of the reasons. Yes, many of the reasons are political. Those reasons are pro-liberty reason (that might be obvious since this is about NH ;) )
#1 You can go to the beach and the mountains in the same day.
#2 Small Government.
#3 Cheap alcohol.
#11 State motto, Live Free or Die.
#12 No Income Tax.
#16 It’s not Massachusetts.
#28 Individualism.
#30 Cheap cigarettes.
#31 Legal fireworks and all the summer displays.
#76 Vermin Supreme on 2012 presidential ballot.
#79 Approval of medical marijuana.
#80 Second highest beer consumption in U.S.
#92 Number one biker state.
#129 Free State Project (http://freestateproject.org/fsn10).
#152 No Sales Tax.
#218 No rain tax.
#236 Sig Sauer.
#242 No payroll tax.
#261 Gun rights.
#281 No helmet law.
#288 Raw milk.
#293 No seatbelt law.
#301 Freedom.
#302 Open carry.
#320 Anyone can be a legislator.
#338 No mandatory car insurance.
#339 Low unemployment.
#350 Dixville Notch votes before anyone else in country.

And it goes on and on forever, well, until it hits the 603rd reason.

Some would say the opposite of those reasons are what make MA great.

LOL. And the newspaper encouraged readers to submit suggested reasons. My guess is many of these reasons were included because a reader (or several) sent them to the paper.

There are a couple competing lists.

The Free State Project has a list of 101 Reasons to Move to New Hampshire if you Love Liberty
http://freestateproject.org/about/101-reasons-move-new-hampshire

Ian Freeman of Free Talk Live/ Free Keene fame made a list of 150+ Reasons to Move to Keene

And who cannot forget Ian's awful video, After Ron Paul, Come Here Maybe.
