Welcome to Hopkinton, NH!
A Guide for New Residents
Welcome to our wonderful town! This is a list of resources to help you join the community.
Hopkinton is a town of about 6,000 people that includes the villages of Hopkinton, Contoocook, and West Hopkinton — the zip code (03229) includes us all. The post office is in Contoocook, so even if you live in Hopkinton Village or West Hopkinton, expect to see your address "autocorrect" to either Contoocook or Hopkinton when you fill out forms. It's okay — you'll get your packages from major carriers either way, but you might want to specify your village for special deliveries and moving vans.
