Goffstown, NH population, income and ZIP codes

Goffstown CDP is a small town in New Hampshire, with 3,127 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #35 of 100 ranked by population — larger than 65% of them. The median age here is 34.4 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly younger profile than the country as a whole. At this population the ACS sample is small, so the margin of error around every dollar figure below is wide — treat the numbers as a band, not a point, and expect them to move between annual releases without the place itself changing.

Households in Goffstown CDP earn a median of $133,657 a year, 70.2% above the national figure of $78,538 and 73% above the $77,368 median for the 65 New Hampshire cities we cover. The median is the midpoint household, not an average, so a handful of very high earners cannot drag it upward the way they distort a mean. Poverty reaches 2.4% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Goffstown CDP is valued at $385,000, 26.9% above the national figure and 42% above the $271,300 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,222 a month, 13.1% below the national figure, or roughly $14,664 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 11% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is cheap relative to what people here earn. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 2.9×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 85.8% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, an owner-dominated market where rental listings are scarce and rent medians rest on a thin sample. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.

Every value on this page is published directly by the Census for this area — nothing is modelled or interpolated. Small-area estimates still carry wider margins of error than state or national figures, so check the linked ACS tables before relying on them for lending, appraisal or legal work.
