Brookfield

In the first forty years of Brookfield’s existence as a community (1780-1820), the number of residents peaked at 690 residents in the 1820 census. The population then steadily dropped to an all time low in the mid-20th century. In the last forty years, there has been another boom, and with the end of the first decade of the 21st century, it appears that the population will be once again number close to 700 residents.

Brookfield has long been a residential, rural community, resistant to the commercial development that has affected so many New Hampshire towns. It will long continue to be an agreeable hometown for a modest number of people of modest means, moderate politics, and middling disposition.
