The Town of Auburn, Massachusetts is made up of land areas which were, in colonial times, outlying parts of Worcester, Leicester, Sutton and Oxford. These areas were incorporated as the town of Ward on April 10, 1778. In 1837 the name was changed to Auburn.
The easy access off I-290, I-90, I-395, Routes 12 and 20 make Auburn a popular destination for shopping, working and living. View the Auburn Account, the Town of Auburn’s Official Quarterly Newsletter.
