Market Context — Manchester NH
Manchester is the largest city in New Hampshire and serves as the state's commercial hub. Low state taxes (no income or sales tax), proximity to Boston (55 miles south), and a booming healthcare and tech sector drive housing demand.
According to U.S. Census Bureau data, Hillsborough County has a diverse housing stock mix of owner-occupied and renter-occupied units. The median age of housing units reflects the area's industrial history, with significant inventory in the pre-1960 range.
What This Means for Manchester Sellers
