Nashua, New Hampshire

Incorporated in 1746, Nashua is the second largest city in New Hampshire. Boasting 86,494 residents, Nashua has been ranked twice in Money Magazine as the best place to live in America, and the 27th safest city to live in the United States in 2010 by the Morgan Quinto Press. Right at the confluence of the Nashua and Merrimack rivers, the city was founded around the once booming textile industry and at one point produced 9.3 million yards of cloth per year.
