According to research published by Carsey School demographer Kenneth Johnson, the pandemic has many reassessing their lives, including where they live. The Census Bureau indicates NH’s population grew by 5,500 to 1,366,000 between July 2019 and July 2020. “In contrast, the region as a whole and four of its six states lost population between July 2019 and July 2020, due in part to mortality associated with the COVID-19 pandemic,” said Johnson.
