Brunswick, MEInc. 1628
Brunswick is a town with an identity shaped by Bowdoin College — one of the most prestigious small colleges in the country — and the former Brunswick Naval Air Station, now being redeveloped as Brunswick Landing. The downtown along Maine Street has a college-town vibrancy, and the housing stock ranges from the grand Federal homes near the college to more modest neighborhoods.
For property professionals, Brunswick is the most complex market in Cumberland County outside Portland — the college presence, the naval station redevelopment, and the range of housing types create a varied market. The Androscoggin River and coastal areas bring flood and environmental considerations.
