Centered on the University of Maine at Farmington, 04938 blends small-town charm with a lively college heartbeat. Walkable downtown streets host indie shops like Devaney, Doak & Garrett Booksellers, a Hannaford and Reny’s for everyday needs, casual eats at Homestead Kitchen and The Roost, movie nights at Narrow Gauge Cinemas, and pints from Tumbledown Brewing. Outdoor lovers have Bonney and Flint Woods trails, Titcomb Mountain for community skiing, the Whistle Stop Rail-Trail for biking, and sandy riverbanks along the Sandy River for warm-weather dips.
