Belknap County, New Hampshire
At the heart of the New Hampshire Lakes Region sits Lake Winnipesaukee, its 288 miles of winding shoreline in Belknap
and Carroll Counties providing trails, fishing, beaches, marinas, boat launches – and waterfront properties that range
from custom vacation homes to charming camping cabins. Year-round and seasonal residents enjoy picturesque
waterfront paths in such Belknap County towns as Meredith, where the Lake Region's Winnipesaukee Scenic
Railroad is based. Nearby Weirs Beach in Laconia hosts the renowned Motorcycle Week rally each June, the
event's origins dating back to 1916, while revitalization in Downtown Laconia provides great opportunities
for small businesses looking for main street communities in which to open their doors. Away from the water
and commerce, the Belknap Range entices outdoor enthusiasts with four-season trails and the challenge of
hiking all 12 of its peaks. For more than a century a retreat for Boston residents looking to escape the summer
heat, Belknap County offers year-round beauty and activities for home owners.

Carroll County, New Hampshire
With barely 44,000 residents, rural Carroll County – named in 1840 for the last surviving signer of the Declaration of Independence –
is the second-least-populated county in New Hampshire. Carroll County includes part of the 750,000-acre White Mountain
National Forest (which covers portions of Grafton and Coös Counties in New Hampshire and Oxford County in Maine).
With Black Mountain, King Pine, Attitash, and Cranmore Mountain ski areas located in Carroll County, and numerous
historic inns still in operation in the White Mountain region, recreation and tourism are the county's primary
industries. One in five residents of Carroll County live in Conway, a major commercial center that boasts outlet shopping
(New Hampshire has no general sales tax) in addition to tourism-related enterprises. Spurred by efforts of the Mount
Washington Valley Economic Council, Conway's recent growth ranges from new restaurants and breweries to
business parks geared toward technology firms. From first-time buyers interested in living near northern New
Hampshire's commercial center to those seeking the solitude of the White Mountains wilderness, Carroll County
offers many opportunities for finding that perfect home choice.

Cheshire County, New Hampshire
Home to Mount Monadnock, one of the world's most-climbed peaks, Cheshire County features the kinds of New Hampshire town
centers that resemble movie sets. Annual events such as Jaffrey's Scarecrows on the Commons and Keene's famed Pumpkin
Festival beckon city-dwellers eager for a taste of autumn in New England. Established in 1735 by several dozen settlers who
paid five pounds each for their land, Keene now centers around Keene State College and Antioch University. The city's lively
downtown welcomes year-round and seasonal residents to boutique shops and tasty eateries. In nearby Rindge, Franklin
Pierce University is another major education-related employer in Cheshire County, while the stunning Cathedral of the Pines
serves as a backdrop for events from religious services to summertime Shakespeare productions.

Coos County, New Hampshire
Its name derived from the Algonquin word for small pines, New Hampshire's sparsely populated Coös County
(barely 33,000 at the last census) is a beacon for vacationers and home owners seeking the wild beauty of Northern New
England and the Great North Woods. Home to Mt. Washington, world famous as much for its dangerously erratic weather
as for the Victorian-era Mount Washington Auto Road, Coös County also includes a portion of New Hampshire's
White Mountain region – providing seasonal and year-round residents with world-class skiing and hiking in their own
backyards. New Hampshire's northernmost city, Berlin in Coös County less than 60 miles from Quebec, has the
distinction of being the birthplace of both the casserole, in 1866, and North America's oldest ski club, the Nansen
Ski Club founded in 1872.

Grafton County, New Hampshire
With half its land belonging to the White Mountain National Forest and portions of the Appalachian Trail passing through
almost a dozen of its towns, New Hampshire's Grafton County is decidedly rural. Yet Dartmouth College and Plymouth
State College are nestled here, too, alongside the historic working farms, independent businesses, and some of Northern
New England's most beautiful peaks. From museum shows, music festivals, and theater to hiking and harvest fairs,
Grafton County offers residents the opportunity to a rich rural-living experience where artisan crafts, education, and
entrepreneurs are nurtured side by side.

Close enough to Boston to drive in to the theater district or museums, far enough to enjoy country living... Hillsborough

Playhouse and the MacDowell Colony in their own backyard, theater- and art-lovers can enjoy events year-round
in the community immortalized in Thornton Wilder's Our Town. From mountain hikes and excellent
cross-country skiing, to blueberry and apple picking at scenic family-owned farms, to easy travel access from the
city of Manchester airport, many first-time home buyers find that Hillsborough County is the perfect choice for
New England living.

Merrimack County, New Hampshire, offers visitors and home owners activities ranging from downtown dining in the state
capital of Concord to science education and wildlife photography in the John Hay National Wildlife Refuge. Luring
walkers and cyclists in summer and snowshoers in winter, the Northern Rail Trail passes through five towns in
Merrimack County, including Franklin at the junction of the picturesque Winnipesaukee and Pemigewasset Rivers.

Strafford County, New Hampshire
New Hampshire's smallest county is home to the state's largest academic institution and a major employer. At the
University of New Hampshire in Durham, seasonal and year-round residents enjoy concerts, plays, lectures, and sporting
events. The oldest permanent settlement in New Hampshire, the city of Dover is located in a region originally inhabited
by the native Abenaki tribe and first explored by Europeans in 1603. A leading textile manufacturer in the second half
of the 19th century, Dover's impressive millworks and other historically interesting buildings now
house such enterprises as the Children's Museum of New Hampshire, technology businesses, and restaurants.
Many who call the charming villages of Somersworth and Rollinsford home today trace their ancestry to the early
farmers, fishermen, and shipbuilders who lived along the Salmon Falls River that borders Maine (and offers pleasant
kayaking and canoeing from public launches on both shores). With both the Seacoast and the White Mountains nearby,
Strafford County is as rich in outdoor activities as it is in history.

Sullivan County, New Hampshire
The county named for Revolutionary War hero John Sullivan is home to 14 towns and just one city, Claremont (population
about 13,300). Commercially prosperous during the Industrial Revolution, Claremont is again emerging as an economic center.
The architecturally impressive brick mills, once the source of textiles and paper manufacturing, and Victorian homes are
finding new uses for businesses ranging from furniture makers to precision technology firms to restaurants and shops.
Contrasting with the excitement of Claremont's revitalization is the Saint-Gaudens National Historic Site. Here, visitors
and residents alike tour the home, studios, and gardens of Augustus Saint-Gaudens in the Sullivan County town of Cornish,
where the acclaimed American sculptor lived until his death in 1907. Home to the Cornish Art Colony, the property is a
favorite spot with locals who enjoy hiking its trails while taking in the original art on display. And like Augustus Saint-Gaudens,
both year-round and seasonal residents are drawn to New Hampshire's Sullivan County for its natural beauty and relative
seclusion.
