Concord, New Hampshire Zoning Districts: What Do They Mean?
Zoning districts are areas regulated by specific laws that determine land use, building types, and development rules. Each district below shows its zone type. Concord's ordinance does not state permitted uses as citywide flags, so they are read from each district's own table rather than summarised here.
| Zone Code | Category | Area | Details |
|---|---|---|---|
RO Open Space Residential District | - | 29,654.5 ac | Standards & uses → |
RM Medium Density Residential District | - | 3,810.3 ac | Standards & uses → |

Concord regulates land through 18 zoning districts, and the largest is Open Space Residential at roughly 29,654 acres, nearly eight times everything else combined among the residential categories.
That single district defines the city. Concord's municipal boundary encloses a great deal of forest and undeveloped land, and the open space residential designation is how the city holds it at very low intensity.
The Performance districts are the distinguishing framework. Concord carries five: Gateway Performance at roughly 760 acres, Office Park Performance at about 500, Opportunity Corridor Performance at roughly 389, Civic Performance at about 73 and Central Business Performance at roughly 53. A performance district regulates by measurable outcomes rather than by a list of permitted uses, which is a different regulatory philosophy from the conventional districts alongside them.
Naming one of them Opportunity Corridor states directly where the city wants investment.
The conventional residential ladder runs single family at roughly 2,845 acres, neighborhood at about 858, medium density at roughly 3,810, high density at about 518 and a downtown residential district at roughly 257.
An Urban Transitional district covers roughly 97 acres, and commercial runs neighborhood, urban, general and highway. Industrial covers roughly 1,689 acres and Institutional about 1,199. This is pre-development intelligence, not legal advice - verify with the local planning department before acquisition.
