Quiet living and easy commutes from Danville
Danville’s big lots attract those looking for a quiet community, but its access to major highways like Interstate 93 and Interstate 95 also brings in working commuters. “It’s a great bedroom community with proximity to a ton of major cities,” says Josh Naughton, Broker for RE/MAX Innovative Properties, who’s been selling homes in the area for 23 years. “There’s not a ton that goes on, but that’s one of the perks of living here.” Danville was originally part of neighboring Kingston before residents petitioned the Governor in 1760 to become their own parish. Like most of southern New Hampshire, the town has long been known as an agricultural community. Increased development around the 1950s saw towns close to the state’s border with Massachusetts become bedroom communities for major cities like Boston.
Danville Town Hall hosts community meetings and local events year-round.

Route 111 connects to I-93 and I-95
Danville is heavily car dependent because of its rural layout, with State Route 111 serving as the main road in and out of town. “You’ve got some really great highway access,” says Naughton. “You’re right in the middle of 111, which gets you to I-93 and I-95.” Commuters can take I-93 south 47 miles to get to Boston and I-95 north 33 miles to get to the Maine border. The closest hospital, Parkland Medical Center, is 12 miles west. The closest airport, Portsmouth International, is 30 miles north.
