5G in Concord

Concord has 38 active 5G towers, accounting for 35.8% of the local network. T-Mobile leads 5G deployment in the area. The network is still primarily 4G LTE, but as 5G expands, more neighborhoods will have higher-frequency antennas nearby. Searching your address shows which towers — including 5G — are closest to your home.

What Concord's Tower Density Means for Residents

With 4.8/mi², Concord has sparse tower coverage. Though towers are spread out, EMF scores in Concord range from 2 to 100 — some pockets sit much closer to infrastructure than others. If you're in one of those pockets, your exposure could be well above the city average.

Concord's RF exposure is rated Low

Most residents experience relatively low RF from cell towers. This is a good baseline, though individual homes near tower clusters may still score higher.

What This Means for You

RF exposure from cell towers drops sharply with distance. In Concord, scores range from 2 to 100, which means your specific location matters more than the city average. Search your address to see what's nearby — especially which direction towers are from your bedrooms.

Power Lines & ELF Exposure in Concord, NH

100–229 kV

Unknown Voltage

How Power Lines Affect Concord Residents

Concord has 11 transmission lines and 7 substations within 5 miles of the city center. ELF exposure drops off sharply with distance. Homes more than 500 meters from a transmission line or substation typically have very low ELF levels, while homes within a few hundred feet may experience noticeably higher exposure.

Substations Near Concord

There are 7 substations in the area, where high-voltage power is stepped down for local distribution. Like transmission lines, their ELF fields drop off quickly with distance. If you can see a substation from your home, it's worth checking your address to see how it affects your score.

Concord's ELF exposure is rated Very Low

Most residents are far enough from high-voltage infrastructure that ELF isn't a major concern. Homes directly adjacent to power lines may still want to check their specific score.

RF vs ELF in Concord: Cell towers have a somewhat bigger impact than power lines in Concord (RF: 29, ELF: 15), though both contribute meaningfully. Checking your address shows which sources are most relevant to your specific location.

What This Means for You

Unlike cell tower RF, which is spread across many towers, ELF exposure is very location-specific. You could live a few blocks from a power line and barely notice it in your score, or live right next to one and see a significant impact. Check your address to see if any are close enough to affect your home.

EMF Exposure & Health

What research says about EMF exposure at levels found in Concord

Sleep Quality

Studies have found measurable effects on sleep quality from RF-EMF exposure, though effect sizes vary.

Children

Some researchers recommend lower limits for children, citing developing nervous systems and longer lifetime exposure.

Precautionary Principle

Many choose to minimize exposure based on the precautionary principle: when science is uncertain but consequences may be significant, reducing exposure is reasonable.

Is 5G available in Concord?

Yes, Concord has 38 active 5G towers. 5G uses higher-frequency RF signals and typically requires more antennas placed closer together, which can increase localized RF exposure.

What is the average EMF score in Concord?

Concord's overall EMF score is 35 out of 100 (Moderate). This breaks down into an RF score of 29 (cell towers & wireless) and an ELF score of 15 (power grid). Scores range from 2 to 100 across the city, so your specific location matters.

How does Concord compare to other cities in New Hampshire?

Concord ranks #N/A out of 3 cities in New Hampshire for EMF exposure (lower rank = less exposure). Some of the lowest-exposure cities in the state include Manchester (47), Nashua (54).

Are there power lines and substations near Concord?

Concord has 11 high-voltage transmission lines and 7 substations within the city area. These contribute to ELF (extremely low frequency) exposure, which is measured separately from RF (cell tower) exposure. The ELF score for Concord is 15 out of 100. Use the map above to see exactly where power grid infrastructure is located.

Which parts of Concord have the lowest EMF?

EMF scores across Concord range from 2 to 100, which means location within the city makes a real difference. Areas farther from cell tower clusters and major power line corridors typically score lower. Use the address search above to check specific streets and neighborhoods you're interested in.
