Atmosphere
Nashua is the result of a well-planned, nicely compact, early 19th century New England manufacturing village, once surrounded by 30 square miles of woodland, meadows, and farmland until recent decades. Today, Nashua offers a combination of grand historic buildings, a downtown district, traditional pedestrian-oriented urban neighborhoods, and more rural and contemporary suburban neighborhoods.
