"NH median incomes and food insecurity increased in most recent data, poverty remained steady"

"New data released by the U.S. Census Bureau provides insight into the economic well-being of Granite Staters. According to 2023 state-level American Community Survey data, the median household income in New Hampshire was $96,838, an increase from its estimated $89,992 in 2022 and, adjusting for inflation, a rebound to about the 2021 level after dropping in 2022. The state’s 2023 median household income was also higher than before the COVID-19 pandemic, reflecting a quicker post-pandemic financial recovery compared to the 2007-2009 Great Recession recovery.

Despite the increase in median income, about 25% of Granite State households had annual incomes below $50,000, and about 17% lower than $35,000, while about 16% of households had over $200,000." REad more
