New Hampshire Home-Insurance Distress by County

Home-insurance distress across New Hampshire is below the national average, with an average county insurance-distress score of 27/100 — the 25th-highest of the 52 states and territories DLRadar scores. DLRadar tracks all 10 New Hampshire counties for the rising premiums, non-renewals and carrier pullback that turn ordinary owners into motivated sellers, often well before any foreclosure filing appears.

Statewide, the pressure is driven by an average FEMA hazard score of 21/100 and average NFIP flood-claim stress of 38/100. These are the exposures carriers price against and increasingly decline to renew, and they are why premiums in New Hampshire keep climbing faster than incomes.

Over the trailing three years, New Hampshire counties recorded 260 NFIP flood claims totaling $10,339,320 paid — the loss history that insurers convert directly into higher premiums and thinner coverage the following renewal cycle.

The sharpest pressure concentrates in Grafton County (69/100, #621 nationally) and Rockingham County. The county-by-county breakdown below ranks every New Hampshire market by insurance distress, each linking to its full report.

DLRadar scores insurance distress monthly for every U.S. county from FEMA, NFIP and carrier-pressure data, then ties it to parcel-level foreclosure, tax-lien and ownership signals — so in New Hampshire you can find the owners whose breaking point is the insurance bill, before they list.
