What does Concord Mean?

The Meriam-Webster site defines concord as “a state of agreement.” Also, the capital city of New Hampshire is named Concord. For me, Concord, California is home, and it is famous for its music venues (home of the Concord Pavilion) and being the birthplace of actor Tom Hanks. As a Realtor working and living in Concord, I get many people mistakenly searching my website for houses in Concord, North Carolina, and there is always a bit of shock once they see the differences in home prices between Concord, CA and Concord, NC. But I love living and working here, and I believe that it is worth the price we pay.
