HUD's fair-market rent for a 2-bedroom in this town's area (Cheshire County, NH) is $1,734 a month. That rate runs from October 2026 through September 2027.

New Hampshire's prices sit at 104.2 when the U.S. average is 100. This place is not in a metro area with its own index, so this is the state number from BEA for 2024.
