They’re not the coldest states. Does it have to do with infrastructure? Thanks. [http://nhenergy.blogspot.com/2014_01_01_archive.html?m=1](http://nhenergy.blogspot.com/2014_01_01_archive.html?m=1)

Infrastructure. I live in NYC in a secluded area. We have no gas or sewer lines to my mine or the surrounding houses. Reason given is its not cost effective for the city to run the lines from the mains to our spots. So we are left with oil/electric and septic. Same way in a house we got in Pocono’s area in Pennsylvania.
