We are on a mission to build a better Auburn: to efficiently deliver quality services to meet the changing needs of everyone in our community and provide big city opportunities with a small-town feel.

The City of Auburn recognizes that health and wellness are incredibly important, and there are many variables that impact the health of our citizens, neighborhoods, businesses, and community. We work collaboratively with many community partners to promote a healthy city, by increasing access to resources and programming. Auburn is in central Maine and serves as the county seat of Androscoggin County, which falls within the Western Public Health District for the state of Maine. Auburn hosts three signature celebration events every year, including a lobster festival! Auburn is rich in opportunities to enjoy great food, shopping, art, and recreation while also being an easy commute to great summer hikes, beautiful ocean beaches, and state parks.
