Freeport lost that "Historic" feel ages ago when mom and pop stores were all forced out by larger chains. Seriously though, Maine needs housing for workers; period. You can't service all these rich out-of staters and retired folk if the people you need to service them can't afford to live there. That or pay your workers more; pick your poison because it will end up being one or the other as Maine's population becomes older and older.
