Dover straddles the Cochecho River, which periodically floods downtown and adjacent residential areas during spring snowmelt and heavy rain events. The city's proximity to Great Bay estuary means tidal surge can compound freshwater flooding in low-lying areas downstream. Harsh winters with repeated freeze-thaw cycles strain the city's mix of Victorian-era and post-war housing stock.
