According to The Laconia Daily Sun, a high demand for housing and a low supply have driven up median home prices in New Hampshire to a record high of $335,000. Research from the Carsey School's Ken Johnson indicates that the higher demand stems partly from a growth in migration in recent years, driven partly by migrants under the age of 49 who tend to be "better educated and have higher incomes" than the state's current residents.
