The county was formally organized at Amherst on March 19, 1771.In 1823, twelve townships of Hillsborough Country \u2013 Andover, Boscawen, Bradford, Dunbarton, Fishersfield (now Newbury), Henniker, Hooksett, Hopkinton, New London, Salisbury, Sutton, and Warner \u2013 became part of Merrimack County. The town of Merrimack along the Merrimack River in south-central Hillsborough County was not included in the newly formed county 9 miles (14\u00a0km) to the north. Hillsborough County’s administrative functions were moved from Amherst to Milford in 1866, and then to the current seats of Manchester and Nashua in 1869.       (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4Geography[edit]According to the United States Census Bureau, the county has a total area of 892 square miles (2,310\u00a0km2), of which 876 square miles (2,270\u00a0km2) is land and 16 square miles (41\u00a0km2) (1.8%) is water.[2] The highest point in Hillsborough county is Pack Monadnock Mountain at 2,290 feet (700\u00a0m).Adjacent counties[edit]National protected area[edit]Politics and government[edit]  2020 presidential election by voting ward in Hillsborough CountyIn the 2012 presidential election, Time had listed Hillsborough as one of five critical counties affecting the outcome in the swing state of New Hampshire. Obama ended up winning with a margin of 50%\u201349%.[3] Despite its more urban nature, Hillsborough County has historically been a more Republican leaning part of the state, although there is evidence to suggest that is changing. In 2020, Joe Biden and Jeanne Shaheen won Hillsborough County by a wider margin than they won statewide by.[4]Biden also received the highest percentage of the vote for a Democrat since Lyndon Johnson’s 1964 landslide, largely driven due to large swings to Democrats in the county’s historically Republican suburban communities.[1]United States presidential election results for Hillsborough County, New Hampshire[5]YearRepublicanDemocraticThird partyNo.\u202f%No.\u202f%No.\u202f%2020104,62545.16%122,34452.81%4,6902.02%2016100,01346.70%99,58946.50%14,5556.80%201299,99148.62%102,30349.74%3,3731.64%200897,17847.47%104,82051.20%2,7111.32%200499,72451.03%94,12148.16%1,5820.81%200080,64948.65%77,62546.83%7,4874.52%199659,44140.54%71,28248.61%15,91210.85%199261,62039.04%58,47037.04%37,75023.92%198888,26165.00%45,79933.73%1,7181.27%198481,46270.68%33,31428.91%4750.41%198068,99459.84%31,78927.57%14,52112.59%197653,58153.11%45,54445.15%1,7551.74%197265,27464.39%34,73934.27%1,3641.35%196842,40946.01%45,42349.28%4,3374.71%196429,50332.88%60,23667.12%00.00%196038,43042.43%52,13557.57%00.00%195645,24855.50%36,23444.44%460.06%195241,26349.68%41,80250.32%00.00%194828,25739.94%41,78959.07%6960.98%194425,92137.99%42,30662.00%90.01%194026,20138.09%42,58061.91%00.00%193623,29338.07%34,99257.20%2,8954.73%193223,30841.50%32,45857.79%3950.70%192824,46545.23%29,45754.46%1650.31%192422,09851.66%16,00237.41%4,67310.93%192023,04054.44%18,73644.27%5461.29%19169,92746.33%10,93951.05%5622.62%19128,00735.92%8,90939.96%5,37824.12%190812,56857.29%8,70139.66%6693.05%190412,60357.54%8,83140.32%4702.15%190012,65358.76%8,33938.72%5432.52%189613,08067.80%4,96525.73%1,2486.47%18929,87552.08%8,78546.33%3031.60%18889,46052.08%8,43946.45%2671.47%18848,54053.31%7,07544.17%4042.52%18808,68955.10%7,00144.39%800.51%18768,19054.57%6,79045.24%290.19%County Commission[edit]The executive power of Hillsborough County’s government is held by three county commissioners, each representing one of the three commissioner districts within the county.In addition to the county commission, there are five directly elected officials; they include county attorney, register of deeds, county sheriff, register of probate, and county treasurer.[6]OfficeNameCounty AttorneyJohn Coughlin (R)Register of DeedsMary Ann Crowell (D)County SheriffChristopher Connelly (R)Register of ProbateJohn A.
