Compare to another town

In the 18th century, the Society of Friends settled the wilderness of the Hoosac River Valley and created the first community that became Adams. Located between Mt. Greylock and the Hoosac Mountain Range, the town grew from a small farming community to a prosperous industrial town.
Today, visitors are reminded of the town's history while viewing the monuments to suffragette Susan B. Anthony and President William McKinley, a frequent visitor whose economic policies benefited the town. Also visible is the rich Victorian architectural legacy, which can be found on many town streets. The most captivating scene in town is a view from the top of Mt. Greylock.
In 1985, the State authorized $8.5 million to prepare roads, utilities and some public amenities to encourage private development for recreational and educational use. Centrally located, Adams provides visitors with year-round cultural events at local museums and colleges, and numerous outdoor sporting activities.
