2024 Map of Fort Fairfield

About this map

Fort Fairfield sits at a critical international juncture where the Aroostook River flows toward the eastern border, marking the boundary between the United States of America and Canada. The town's layout is defined by its proximity to the water, with Riverside Ave W and Aroostook Falls Rd tracing the river's winding course. This agricultural and aviation hub is anchored by the Fort Fairfield Airport and surrounded by a landscape of named heights including Irish Ridge and Harvey Hill. Genealogists will find significant value in the concentration of burial sites, from the central Saint Denis Catholic Cem and Riverside Cem to the family-associated Houghton Burial Ground and Harvey Hill Cem. Smaller settlements like Goodrich and Houghtonville to the north reflect the rural development of this borderland, while numerous waterways such as Limestone Stream and Goodrich Brook drain the rolling potato-country terrain.
