Office of the Mayor
Nashua is an integral part of our state's growing economy. As mayor of New Hampshire's 'Gate City' I would like to welcome you.
Nashua was voted 'Best Place to Live in America' in 1987 and 1997. Our city is not only a great place to live and raise a family but also offers numerous job opportunities. New Hampshire has the highest proportion of high-tech workers of any state in the nation, and over the last decade our city has emerged as one of the premier centers of this focus. Nashua has been the 'gateway to prosperity' for many local businesses, and new firms continue to join our existing high-technology and manufacturing community, opening several new facilities in Nashua within the last few years.
Here are some of the reasons businesses are moving to or expanding in Nashua:
- No sales or income taxes.
- Ranking as second-safest city in the nation (based on FBI statistics).
- A highly skilled labor force.
- High-quality neighborhoods in an affordable real estate market.
- A vibrant and active downtown and a demonstrated commitment to the performing arts.
- Two full-service community hospitals and four colleges.
Nashua's downtown offers world-class cuisine and a bustling retail district in a historic setting. The quality of life and cultural diversity add to our attractiveness. As part of a spirited effort to encourage companies to relocate to Nashua and support the expansion of existing businesses, Nashua has created a 'commerce friendly climate' where the mayor's office door is always open; cooperation and communication with existing and potential businesses is one of our high priorities.
I want to offer you a personal invitation to come experience all that Nashua has to offer. We are truly a city on the cutting edge of the new millennium. If you have any questions or if I can be of any assistance, please contact me at my office in City Hall, (603) 589-3260. Cordially,
Donnalee Lozeau
Mayor
