Apartments for Rent in Sanford, ME with Washer-Dryers

Sanford is a pretty large place at almost 50 square miles. The town proper actually includes the Village of Springvale, which is nestled in the north of the town. Springvale and Sanford used to be separate villages, and though they have merged, Springvale still retains its own identity. Sanford has been a mill town almost since its beginning. Textiles were its bread and butter for decades because of the very successful Sanford Mills. Mills grew up producing carriage blankets and then successfully moved into upholstery fabrics, fabrics used in automobiles, drapes, carpets and even uniforms during the war effort. After Mills left due to economic distress, Sanford started a grassroots campaign to draw business back to the city. Determined that Sanford is a great place to live and work, the city has since found some new industries, including aircraft parts manufacturing, to fill the space. View Sanford City Guide
