Taking a look at the results here http://www.nytimes.com/elections/2016/primaries/new-hampshire

Trump seems to have his highest concentration of support in the towns along the Mass border in the extreme SE of the state. The region between Nashua and Seabrook appears to be his stronghold.  Are these towns Boston exburbs? Can anyone provide any insight on why he picked up 50% or close to 50% in this region?

Other than the town of Nashua itself, that is pretty much suburban middle class families seeking a lower tax burden. But Seabrook was where Trump really soared.

The Boston suburbs/exurbs have always been a hardcore Trump area. I would expect Trump to excel in areas with high concentrations of ethnic white Catholics, i.e. Irish and Italian ancestry.
