About The Community
Bath, Maine - proudly known as "The City of Ships" - is a small city on the west bank of the Kennebec River with a maritime heritage that runs deeper than almost anywhere else in New England. Home to Bath Iron Works, one of the nation's premier naval shipbuilders, and a beautifully preserved 19th-century brick downtown, Bath offers an authentic Maine character that is increasingly rare. With a vibrant waterfront, independent shops and restaurants, and a close-knit community of around 8,800, Bath is a city with real soul.

Community Details
Bath's compact and walkable downtown along Front Street and Centre Street is one of the most charming in midcoast Maine - lined with independent restaurants, galleries, and shops set against a backdrop of handsome brick architecture. The Kennebec River waterfront adds a scenic and recreational dimension, while the Maine Maritime Museum preserves and celebrates the city's rich shipbuilding legacy. Bath is part of RSU 1, which includes the towns of Phippsburg and Woolwich, and is just six miles east of Brunswick via Route 1 - close enough to share the region's amenities, distinct enough to feel entirely its own.
