Living in Hudson



Hudson is a medium-sized town located in the state of New Hampshire. With a population of 25,570 people and six associated neighborhoods, Hudson is the tenth largest community in New Hampshire.

Hudson home prices are not only among the most expensive in New Hampshire, but Hudson real estate also consistently ranks among the most expensive in America.

One interesting thing about the economy is that relatively large numbers of people worked from their home: 13.75% 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.

Because of many things, Hudson is a very good place for families to consider.

Is Hudson perfect? Of course not, and if you like frenetic nightlife, it will be far from your cup of tea. But overall this is a solid community, with many things to recommend it as a family-friendly place to live.
