Between 2009 and 2015, Manchester was ranked #1 as the best U.S. city for small businesses, and 13 out of 100 in the best cities to live and launch a business.

Hospitals in New Hampshire as a whole collectively lost more than $570 million between March and July (WCVB). The loss of funds to hospitals in and around Manchester has resulted in employee layoffs in the city, a freeze in hiring, reduced hours, and lack of available resources to deal with the rise in COVID patients.
