Sources and method

Directory figures are live counts from the Churches List database for New Hampshire (NH) as of June 2026. Congregations and adherents come from the 2020 US Religion Census, a county-level enumeration reported by religious bodies and aggregated here to the state; its methodology differs from a directory count and the two will not match. Historic-register counts join National Register of Historic Places listings to directory churches. Statistics for other states: Texas · California · Pennsylvania · North Carolina · Ohio · Florida · Illinois · Georgia · New York · Michigan.
