Amherst is a quiet community, with most of its retail and businesses located off of Route 101A. Recent growth in the retail sector has been brisk with a super Walmart, Lowes, Circuit City, Staples, Super Stop and Shop and many more opening their doors in Amherst.

Once you turn off the busy Route 101A corridor, you quickly arrive in a country atmosphere of handsome and well kept homes. Amherst town ordinances call for larger home lots so it is common for Amherst, NH homes to have larger lots of 2 to 5 acres.
