Frequently asked questions about New Hampshire home prices

Which county in New Hampshire has the most expensive homes?

Rockingham County has the highest median home value in New Hampshire at $624,657. This is often searched as the "richest" or "wealthiest" county in New Hampshire — though it's worth being precise about what's being measured here: median home value reflects property prices, not household income or net worth. The two usually correlate, but a county can have expensive homes without having the highest-earning residents, particularly in areas with a lot of vacation or second homes.

Which county in New Hampshire has the highest household income?

Rockingham County has the highest median household income in New Hampshire at $118,331. If what you're really after is the "richest" or "wealthiest" county in New Hampshire, this is the closer answer — income measures what households actually earn each year, while home values measure what property costs. Neither is quite the same as wealth, which would also account for savings, investments and property people already own outright.

What is the cheapest county in New Hampshire?

Coos County has the lowest median home value of the 10 New Hampshire counties tracked here, at $252,787. Keep in mind that low home prices often reflect limited local job markets, distance from major metro areas, or shrinking population — affordability alone doesn't tell you whether somewhere is a good fit.

How do New Hampshire home prices compare to the rest of the country?

The typical (median) county in New Hampshire has a home value of $496,284, against $230,723 for the median U.S. county — roughly 115.1% higher. Figures come from Zillow's monthly Home Value Index; this site checks for new data daily.
