The Town of Yarmouth, Maine epitomizes the best in Maine communities - a New England style main street (known as the "Village") with a combination of old homes and small businesses, a beautiful parkway along the picturesque Royal River, a sheltered port in Yarmouth Harbor and a diversified commercial base along US Route One. What makes Yarmouth special is that so many of our more than 8,300 residents contribute their time and efforts to make Yarmouth a warm and welcoming community of caring individuals.
Yarmouth is located on the southern coast of the State of Maine in the northeastern section of the County of Cumberland, the State's most populous county. The Town is approximately 11 miles northeast of Portland, the State's largest city. The Town's northeast border is formed by the towns of Freeport and Pownal, with North Yarmouth on the northwest and Cumberland on its southwest. The Atlantic Ocean establishes the Town's southeastern line. The Cousins River separates a portion of Yarmouth from Freeport and the Royal River flows through the center of the Town. Access to Yarmouth is provided by two exits of U.S. Interstate 95, by U.S. Route 1 and State Route 88, each intersecting from a north/south direction; and State Route 115, which intersects the Town from east/west.
