Farmingdale, Maine has about 2,064 people. That count is a 2020–2024 Census average, not a headcount from one day.

A typical home is worth about $239,200.

HUD's fair-market rent for a 2-bedroom in this town's area (Kennebec County, ME) is $1,374 a month. That rate runs from October 2026 through September 2027.

Maine's prices sit at 97.0 when the U.S. average is 100. This place is not in a metro area with its own index, so this is the state number from BEA for 2024.

In July 2026, a typical Maine home paid 32.41¢ per kilowatt-hour. That is a state average from EIA, not Farmingdale's bill.
