ATKINSON

Atkinson has a rich history dating back to the American Revolution. The community was incorporated
September 3, 1767 and was named after Colonel Theodore Atkinson, a local landowner.
Atkinson is a quiet, bedroom community town located in southern New Hampshire. The winding road of
Main Street is both historic and beautiful and was recently adopted as one of New Hampshire’s scenic byways.
Conveniently located between Routes 125 and 111, you can enjoy country living with easy access
to shopping and urban areas.
