Plaistow sits directly on the Massachusetts border and is one of the most accessible entry points into New Hampshire’s real estate market. Route 125 connects the town quickly to Haverhill, the I-495 corridor, and points north into Rockingham County. The housing market offers competitive pricing relative to comparable Massachusetts communities, and the town’s location makes it a natural choice for buyers who work in the Merrimack Valley or on the North Shore but want to take advantage of New Hampshire’s favorable tax environment.
