According to a new NHFPI analysis, February revenues surged past expectations after New Hampshire’s Tax Amnesty Program generated far more than forecast, pushing the State’s fiscal year totals into surplus. But the one-time windfall also obscures mixed results from key ongoing revenue sources. With major business tax payments due in March and April, the State’s fiscal outlook remains uncertain.

A new analysis from NHFPI’s Jessica Williams finds that deaths in New Hampshire continue to outpace births, making in-migration — particularly from Massachusetts — the state’s primary source of population growth. While the Granite State continues to add residents, slower growth, an aging population, and shifting migration patterns are shaping New Hampshire’s economic and workforce landscape.

NHFPI dives into newly released U.S. Census Bureau data for a clearer look into how economic conditions and access to health coverage vary across the state. About one-third of New Hampshire residents are enrolled in public health coverage, with significantly higher participation in rural counties with older populations and lower incomes.
