What it’s like
The place. Morrill is a small Waldo County town where nearly everyone owns the home they live in, a higher share than is typical for most places. Household incomes sit a little above the county's, and fewer people live below the poverty line than in many Maine towns. Winters are cold and snowy, with January the coldest month, and summers are mild, warmest in July, with plenty of rain and melted snow through the year.
Work. Residents mostly work in schools, hospitals and social care, followed by shops, the building trades and manufacturing. Across Waldo County, some of the biggest employers are Waldo County General Hospital, RSU 71 Schools and Mathews Brothers Company, which makes windows and window frames. Many people drive a fair way to work, and only a small number work from home.
Things to do. Lake St. George State Park, a protected area, is a short drive away, as is Lake Passagassawakeag for time on the water. The Passagassawakeag River is also close by. For a longer outing, Camden Hills State Park is a longer drive away.

FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms across Waldo County, against the rest of the country; all of them together, very low. It is meant for planning, not a substitute for a local risk assessment or a flood map: FEMA’s index.
From the U.S. Census Bureau’s 2020 census and its American Community Survey (2020–2024 five-year estimates), and the Bureau of Labor Statistics. A survey, so each figure has a margin of error, and figures it is not sure of are left out. More on Waldo County.
