Chatham's location, spectacular coastline, bountiful resources of
seafood, and a temperate climate attract people. First it was the
Monomoyick tribe, then in the 17th century, English settlers who
gave it the name Chatham. Ever since, people of all walks of
life--fishermen, merchants, clergy, artisans, sportsmen, royalty,
vacationers, and more recently, retirees--have found Chatham the
ideal destination to realize their hopes and dreams. At the
beginning of the 20th century, Chatham was a fishing village with a
population of about 1,750 people. In the 2010 census, the
population was 6,125, although in the summer it can explode to
about 20,000, not counting vacationers in the town's hotels, inns,
and bed and breakfasts. While fishing is the primary occupation,
tourism thrives for the same reasons the original residents were
drawn to this charming seaside town. A picture-perfect Main Street,
beautiful beaches, fine restaurants and hotels, and a full
assortment of sports, arts, and entertainment make Chatham a
perfect destination!
