As we plan redevelopment in the city, we must be cognizant of how
new growth impacts different groups in the city and ensure access to
opportunities for all residents to succeed.
Total Population Change 1970-2030
Nashua has seen a steady rise in population since 1970 with an
increase of nearly 30,000 new residents. Nashua can expect this growth
to continue through the year 2030 adding another 8,000 residents.

Change in Age Structure 2011-2019
Residents in Nashua are aging in place; the fastest growing age cohort
in the city are residents 55 years and older. Nashua will need to
consider the types of shifts in policy, housing and job creation, unit size,
and approaches to public space that will best meet the needs of this
changing population.
