    Sagamore Village

    The people of Sagamore Village are very diverse in age and culture. There are 538 residents at Sagamore, 243 of which are under 20 years old (45%).  Sagamore is comprised of both elderly and family housing units which creates a unique community dynamic.  

    Sagamore is home to predominantly American born families with Vietnamese, Cambodian, Somalian, Sudanese, and Congolese born residents as well. 

    Construction of Sagamore Village began in 1941 as a war housing project under the control of the Federal Government. The Sagamore Study Center opened in February of 1993 with small scale, pre-K-5, educational activities and adult education classes.

    Today, the Study Center has evolved into a communal focal point for educational assistance for residents of all ages, a resource center for exploring post-secondary opportunities, and a place for leadership development, and community service.
