New Hampshire continues to face a significant housing gap. The median single-family home price reached $565,000 in June 2025, up 68% since 2020, while household incomes rose 33% over the same period, according to New Hampshire Housing.
The state needs an estimated 23,500 additional units today and 90,000 by 2040. Data from the New Hampshire Fiscal Policy Institute indicates a household would have needed to earn more than $158,000 in 2025 to avoid being cost-burdened, while roughly 30% of households exceeded $150,000 in income.
“While the ReGen Valley Tech Hub and our consortium members are focused on breaking new ground in biomanufacturing and biofabrication, we are equally committed to building the foundation for a stronger, healthier workforce,” said Jennifer MacDonald, chief operating officer, ARMI, BioFabUSA, in a statement. “Without housing for the people driving this mission forward, our ability to grow the regional economy and deliver life-saving therapies simply cannot be realized.
The ReGen Valley Tech Hub, led by ARMI and comprising more than 80 organizations, aims to grow New Hampshire’s biofabrication sector. More information is available at ReGenValley.com and NHHousing.org.
