York, Maine Relocation Guide

From the carousel and arcades at York Beach to the peace and quiet of the wilderness areas, York truly is an ideal place to live -- for all reasons and in all seasons. York has miles of sandy beaches: the popular Long Sands and Short Sands, and the more secluded Cape Neddick and Harbor Beaches.

The Old York Historical Society operates a community museum, which includes the oldest jail in America, where "history comes alive" for all ages.

You'll find Maine's largest zoo and amusement park in the heart of York Beach, and on a clear day you can see miles of scenic coast from the top of Mount Agamenticus. No trip to York is complete without a trip to Nubble Lighthouse, perhaps the most beautiful lighthouse in America.

There are family-oriented special events year-round in York, including Harvestfest in October, and York Days, a week-long celebration of summer in York Beach. A wealth of fine restaurants and accommodations, including oceanfront resorts, campgrounds, and cozy bed & breakfasts, are available for the resident as well as the visitor!.

York is the oldest incorporated town in the United States, and celebrated its 351st anniversary this year. It has a rich heritage of which townspeople are very proud. It boasts a top school system and local hospital.
