Cumberland, Md., isn’t a town that might normally ping people’s radars. It sits just south of the Maryland-Pennsylvania border and is roughly two and a half hours away from Washington, D.C., and Baltimore. But city officials are looking to change that, by offering prospective residents an incentive of up to $20,000.
The limited-time pilot program is designed to attract more families to live within Cumberland’s city limits. The city did not say how long it plans to offer the relocation bonus.
