Living in York, Maine.

York Beach, the Nubble Light, and four historic villages.

York lifestyle changes by village — colonial-history walks in York Village, gilded-age elegance in York Harbor, family beach summers at Short and Long Sands, and Cape Neddick's Nubble Light sunsets. Top-rated York schools tie it all together.

York is really four villages — York Village (the colonial original), York Harbor (the gilded-age estates), York Beach (the cottages and Short Sands boardwalk), and Cape Neddick (the Nubble Light and rocky coast). Together they cover everything from 1719 saltboxes to oceanfront new builds.
