Why Portland, Maine?
With its mixture of cultural and outdoor adventures, Portland Maine is a city rich in history that offers a vibrant urban scene next to quiet tree-lined streets in friendly neighborhoods that are just a short walk from stunning waterfront views. The city is safe and affordable. Neighborhood schools provide exceptional educational opportunities. Maine has one of the lowest crime rates in the country, and crime rates in Portland, Maine’s largest city, are lower than average for a metro area of its size. Portland is large enough to be diverse and endlessly interesting, yet small enough to retain a strong sense of community.
