I know that Federal property is generally immune from local taxes, but what about property owned by the state? Is that just a matter of state law? Is there a term for this kind of immunity because I can't find it using standard searches.

Yes, property owned by governments, including state governments, is generally exempt from property taxes in the US. (A list of the exemptions as of 2000 is available here.)

The governments that are exempt in New Hampshire are listed in Ch 72 ยง23 of the New Hampshire Statutes, Real Estate and Personal Property Tax Exemption." These include the state, cities, towns, and school or village districts.
