Ayer MA Community Profile & History
Ayer, Massachusetts developed around the railroad industry in the 1840's, which remained the town's primary economic force through the early 1900s. Railroad switching yards, tanneries and mills prospered as a result of railroad transportation in the area now comprising Ayer's Central Business District.
Ayer is served by commuter rail service today and is centrally located near I-495, I-290 and Route 2. While Ayer is primarily residential, the close proximity to these major transportation links fueled industrial development throughout the town, which made the manufacturing industry the largest employers in the town in the 1980's. However, by 1990, the service sector had become Ayer's largest employer, followed closely by retail trade employment.
Commercial and retail activity continue to expand in Ayer. Today, the town of Ayer boasts numerous industries, a thriving historical downtown unique to the region and modern commuter rail service to Boston.
