Claremont is a medium-sized city located in the state of New Hampshire. With a population of 13,111 people and three associated neighborhoods, Claremont is the 24th largest community in New Hampshire. Much of the housing stock in Claremont was built prior to World War II, making it one of the older and more historic cities in the country.
Also of interest is that Claremont has more people living here who work in computers and math than 95% of the places in the US.
One interesting thing about the economy is that relatively large numbers of people worked from their home: 7.45% of the workforce. While this number may seem small overall, as a fraction of the total workforce this is high compared to the rest of the county. These workers are often telecommuters who work in knowledge-based, white-collar professions. For example, Silicon Valley has large numbers of people who telecommute. Other at-home workers may be self-employed people who operate small businesses out of their homes.
Residents will find that the city is relatively quiet. This is because it is not over-populated, and it has fewer college students, renters, and young children - all of whom can be noisy at times. So, if you're looking for a relatively peaceful place to live, Claremont is worth considering.
As is often the case in a small city, Claremont doesn't have a public transportation system that people use for their commute.
The population of Claremont overall has a level of education that is slightly above the US average for all US cities and towns of 21.84%. Of adults 25 and older in Claremont, 23.24% have at least a bachelor's degree.
