Counties
Statusno live polygon layer with county names found (NH GRANIT's County layer is boundary lines only, no name field)
FallbackCensus TIGER national counties file (www2.census.gov/geo/tiger/TIGER2024/COUNTY/tl_2024_us_county.zip), filterable to NH's 10 counties by STATEFP=33.
Municipalities
Urlhttps://nhgeodata.unh.edu/hosting/rest/services/Hosted/GV_BaseLayers/FeatureServer/8
ProviderNH GRANIT (UNH)
TypeArcGIS REST FeatureServer
Noteverified 259 records — this includes unincorporated grants/ locations/purchases in Coös County, not just the 234 legal cities/ towns, so a filter is needed. Cross-checked against NHDOT's own Boundaries FeatureServer (maps.dot.nh.gov/arcgis_server/rest/services/Boundaries/NHDOT_BOUNDARIES_Towns/FeatureServer/2), also confirmed live with the same count.

School Districts
Statusblocked, not confirmed absent
Noteevery NH DOE endpoint checked (education.nh.gov, the SAU map PDF, my.doe.nh.gov) returned HTTP 403 on every attempt (bot-protection, Akamai/Cloudflare-style) — this is a fetch block, not evidence the data doesn't exist. Would need an authenticated/whitelisted fetch or manual download to confirm a source.
Educational Region
Statussame blocked status as school_districts
NoteNH's SAU layer is itself this overlay, but no live source could be verified given the 403 block above.
Population
Statusnot yet ingested
Recommended SourceUS Census Bureau Population Estimates Program (PEP) — https://api.census.gov/data/{year}/pep/population. The municipalities source's own pop20 field works as a quicker fallback.
