The quick read
Reading Lebanon, NH beyond the headline numbers
Lebanon sits inside Grafton County, New Hampshire, at roughly 43.64°N, -72.25°W. Population 13,579, $98,147 median household income. Median home value $385,400, median rent $1,744. Poverty rate 7%, read against that income figure since two cities on the same median can differ underneath it.
2 hospitals in/around Lebanon, 3.5/5 avg rating, 2 with an ER.
At 7%, poverty in Lebanon, NH runs below the midpoint of reporting cities -- enough to matter locally, not enough to dominate the city's profile.
The median home in Lebanon costs roughly 3.9 times median household income, below the midpoint for reporting cities, so ownership remains reachable on a typical local wage.
22.8% of Lebanon workers report working from home, the highest quarter of reporting cities. Where that share runs this high, local income increasingly reflects employers located somewhere else.
Among the CDC measures on this page, obesity departs furthest from its peer median: 24.5% in Lebanon, the lowest-prevalence quarter of the 3,759 cities reporting that measure.
