Nashua is a beautiful place to call home. Between the little shops and bustling streets, there is room for everyone and their needs. One thing that I absolutely love about Nashua is the diversity that can be seen throughout. As I have grown up, I have come to appreciate the amazing cultures, food, and people I have met. Different languages can be heard all around and Nashua schools have programs to help new English learners. Unfortunately, it is no secret that Nashua and New Hampshire itself has high numbers of drug use. Personally, I would like to see more being done about addiction as well as the addition of homeless shelters. Everyone deserves to be given a fair shot and supported throughout their journey, whatever it may be.
I love how close it is to everything. You're a five minute ride away from any retail or grocery store, 10-15 minutes away from some form of entertainment like the movie theater, an ice rink, rock climbing, and more. You're only an hour ride way from the beach too! There are also many opportunities for health and wellness. There are multiple gyms such as Planet fitness and the YMCA that provide places to improve their physical wellbeing. Another positive are the three hospitals located in immediate proximity of Nashua.
I like it here! There's nothing bad that I have a huge issue to complain about. Good public places, stores, restaurants, public schools, etc. I've lived here for about 9 years now so I know the people here are kind and friendly. A safe community with little to no crime. The one thing I would love to change is the prices of houses/rent. Sometimes, it's a little too much.
