Sitting right between Manchester and Derry, Londonderry, NH is a quaint town that is known for its many apple orchards and historic buildings but also has many modern amenities. The population, according to the 2010 US Census, was just under 25,000. Founded in the early 1700s, the town was named for Londonderry in the Ulster province of northern Ireland, and the area went through many border and name changes, including Derry and Windham, until finding its modern borders in the 1800s. The town was a well known railroad depot during the 19th century, until rail service was stopped due to accidents, but they were well known for their orchards. Today, the area is served by many state roads as well as the Manchester-Boston Regional Airport, part of which is located in the northwest corner of the city.
Right next to Londonderry likes their sister city of Derry, NH. These two towns were first one community in the 1700s, as they were settled by a group from that area of Ireland. Derry became its own municipality in 1827, after much debate within the communities. In the 19th and into the 20th centuries, Derry was known for manufacturing, specifically shoes. The town is sometimes called “Spacetown,” because it’s the birthplace of astronaut Alan Shephard. In 2010, Derry had a population of 33,109, making it more populous than neighboring Londonderry. The two communities are still close, not only geographically, but culturally as well.
