Welcome To Danforth, Maine!

The Story

The Northern Most Town in Washington County is Danforth Maine.

Downeast Maine is on the north end of the coastline of Vacationland. To me, this is the real deal and what rural Maine is all about, not danforth me homethe commercial four color glossy propaganda on the more affluent, tourist driven sections of the rock bound coast. Danforth Maine is two townships, a large land mass that borders Aroostook County to the north.

MOOERS REALTY has blogged about Danforth Maine before online.

This website information is to expand on the topic of Danforth Maine because like most small rural towns, the pickings are slim online for local community information.

We try to help put the town of any size on the map.

The Washington County town named after Thomas Danforth. Who exactly was Thomas Danforth this small Maine town’s namesake? In 1930 the population swelled to 1467 and judging by the quality of the housing design, this railroad rich town was an important train route junction.

The local Danforth Maine population has settled back to 589 local citizenry today.

The everything was done locally home grown approach to living in Danforth Maine  like most places has changed. But it is fun to danforth me town schoolremember, to share the way it was. Because the history is rich and one of a kind in these small Maine towns. The people are connected in Maine rural communities. The kids more respectful and taught to pitch in, clean up.

Every year the Houlton Rotary Club has a school student recognition day and Danforth Maine scores high in community involvement. Volunteering, outdoor preparedness are big and start early in Danforth Maine.

But getting off in Lincoln Maine and accessing RT 169 to come into Danforth is another travel way to consider. So is heading up US RT 2A, the old Bangor Road used long before Interstate 95 came into being for vehicle travel use. Next try heading over through Wytipitlock or Haynesville Maine might be a good choice for road map options.
