Berlin is a somewhat small city located in the state of New Hampshire. With a population of 9,459 people and three associated neighborhoods, Berlin is the 31st largest community in New Hampshire. Much of the housing stock in Berlin was built prior to World War II, making it one of the older and more historic cities in the country.
Residents will find that the city is relatively quiet. This is because it is not over-populated, and it has fewer college students, renters, and young children - all of whom can be noisy at times. So, if you're looking for a relatively peaceful place to live, Berlin is worth considering.
One of the benefits of Berlin is that there is very little traffic. The average commute to work is 17.42 minutes, which is substantially less than the national average. Not only does this mean that the drive to work is less aggravating, but noise and pollution levels are lower as a result.

The per capita income in Berlin in 2022 was $26,544, which is low income relative to New Hampshire, and lower middle income relative to the rest of the US. This equates to an annual income of $106,176 for a family of four. However, Berlin contains both very wealthy and poor people as well.
