Carroll County New Hampshire Carroll County, New Hampshire, located on the central western edge of the state, is one of ten NH counties. Carroll County is one of the three largest counties in NH by area but has the third lowest population, meaning that in Carroll County, there’s plenty of room for everyone. Sprawling forests full of towering pines, crystal clear lakes and streams, rolling hills and open fields make up the majority of this region of the state. Carroll County was created in 1840 by removing towns from Strafford County to the south. This action caused Strafford County to become the smallest county in New Hampshire, but it still retains a population of over 112,000 people with the help of two large cities, Dover and Rochester. Carroll County’s largest town is Conway, boasting a population of over 8,000 year-round residents. Carroll County was named in honor of Charles Carroll, the last surviving person to have signed the Declaration of Independence. The county’s seat is, and has always been, Ossipee, NH. The entire area of Carroll County is filled with opportunities for enjoying the great outdoors. Thick, old forests go on for miles, seemingly without end. Trails lead up steep mountainsides and through awe-inspiring ravines cut deep into the living rock by the retreat of glaciers 50,000 years ago. If you enjoy hiking and/or rock climbing, Carroll County has got you covered. Just don’t underestimate the difficulty and be sure to plan accordingly. Another claim to fame of Carroll County is Hart’s Location, a tiny town of barely over 75 people. The name “Hart’s Location” may ring a bell – this is because it is the first town to vote in the quadrennial Primary held here in New Hampshire. Always the first to report in with their results, Hart’s Location has the esteemed honor of being the first in the state that is first in the nation. Then the sleepy little town returns to its quiet slumber for the next four years.
