The City of Nashua was voted “Best Place to Live” by Money Magazine in 2009
“Nashua, ‘The Gate City’, is the second largest city in New Hampshire and is the center of a diverse and dynamic region of more than 175,000 people. The combination of an excellent quality of life and proximity to Boston, the seacoast, and the White Mountains makes Nashua an attractive growth center for New England. Nashua has been named Money magazine's "Best Place to Live in America," and is the only city in the country ever to win this honor twice.” Quoted from the official city website: http://www.gonashua.com/
