Public toilets in New Hampshire, commonly called washrooms, are found at a rate of around ten public toilets per 100,000 people.
washroom is one of the most commonly used words for public toilet in the United States. [1] Euphemisms are often used to avoid discussing the purpose of toilets. Words used include toilet, restroom, bathroom, lavatory and john. [2]
A 2021 study found there were ten public toilets per 100,000 people. [3] The cleanest public toilets at a gas station in New Hampshire, according to the GasBuddy, in 2019 were found at Irving. [4]
Public toilets are often located in semi-private public accommodations like hotels, stores, restaurants and coffee shops instead of being street level municipal maintained facilities. [5]
The toilets at the Music Hall in Portsmouth were second in Cintas' America’s Best Restroom Contest in 2015. [6]
As the Prohibition effort began to take more shape in the 1910s, large cities in the Northeast and Midwest had women's groups advocating for the creation of large numbers of comfort stations as a way of discouraging men from entering drinking establishments in search of public toilets. This was successful in many places in getting cities to build comfort stations, but the volume of new public toilets built was rarely enough to meet public needs. [5] Because Prohibition saw an increase in the construction of public toilets to address the new found demand, many municipalities located outside the South built sex-segregated public toilets that were essentially the same construction inside, with the same number of stalls and layout for each. [5]
A dad in New Hampshire went viral after needing to change his baby's diaper on the floor of a public toilet as a result of a lack of changing tables in the men's room. [7]
Manchester Police Chief Allen Aldenberg ordered Parks and Recreation Director Mark Gomez to remove a pair of portable public toilets on the edge of Veterans Park in Manchester in May 2021 because when the serving mostly homeless people toilets lacked an attendant, they became places where illegal substances were being consumed. The toilets had been there since 2019 when the local government decided it was an easier solution than paying for repairs and maintenance on the public toilets at the local tourist offices. [8]
