A stroll through Chatham Village soon reveals an atmosphere that extends beyond its physical beauty. It is a true village—a community where neighbors visit, stop and chat, match skills on the tennis court or share a picnic in the woods. It’s a place where a neighbor is likely to provide a meal for a sick friend or lend a car when yours is out of commission—a place where you’ll feel comfortable asking for a favor.
