Do we need to use different airports for border hops with a DTV visa in Thailand?

The user intends to apply for a DTV visa and rent a house in Chiang Mai, expressing concern about the necessity of border hopping every six months without being perceived as seeking permanent residency. Responses indicate that re-entering at Chiang Mai International Airport (CNX) has been trouble-free for others, who report that immigration simply requires filling out a form for residence verification. Additionally, it's clarified that using any exit method—air or land—is acceptable, and concerns about appearing as a criminal for border hopping are unfounded, as the DTV visa allows for multiple entries.
