Discover The Strong Community Of Cambridge, NY
The area commonly referred to as "Cambridge" actually includes a separate town and village. Only one-third of the Village of Cambridge lies within the town, and the only other concentrated areas within the town are three hamlets: Coila, South Cambridge and Center Cambridge. While the town may be small, its residents have a strong sense of community.
The dominant industry in Cambridge is agriculture, and dairy farms are particularly popular. It was rumored to be where pie à la mode was invented, however in 1936, this was debunked by a newspaper from Duluth, Minnesota, where the dish actually originated from.
