It is the primary city of the Cumberland, MD-WV Metropolitan Statistical Area. At the 2010 census, the city had a population of 20,859, and the metropolitan area had a population of 103,299. Located on the Potomac River, Cumberland is a regional business and commercial center for Western Maryland and the Potomac Highlands of West Virginia. Historically Cumberland was known as the "Queen City," as it was once the second largest in the state. Because of its strategic location on what became known as the Cumberland Road through the Appalachians, after the American Revolution it served as a historical outfitting and staging point for westward emigrant trail migrations throughout the first half of the 1800s. In this role, it supported the settlement of the Ohio Country and the lands in that latitude of the Louisiana Purchase. It also became an industrial center, served by major roads, railroads, and the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal, which connected Cumberland to Washington, D.C. and is now a national park. Today, Interstate 68 bisects the town. Industry declined after World War II. Much of the later urban, business and technological development in the state has been concentrated in eastern coastal cities. Today the Cumberland, MD-WV Metropolitan Statistical Area is one of the poorest in the United States, ranking 305th out of 318 metropolitan areas in per capita income.[2] History{{Main|History of Cumberland, Maryland}}Cumberland was named by English colonists after the son of King George II, Prince William, the Duke of Cumberland. It is built on the site of the mid-18th century Fort Cumberland, the starting point for British General Edward Braddock's ill-fated attack on the French stronghold of Fort Duquesne (present-day Pittsburgh) during the French and Indian War, the North American front of the Seven Years' War between the French and the British. (See Braddock expedition.) This area had long been settled for thousands of years by indigenous peoples. The fort was developed along the Great Indian Warpath which tribes used to travel the backcountry. Cumberland also served as an outpost of Colonel George Washington during the French and Indian War, and his first military headquarters was built here. Washington returned as President of the United States in 1794 to Cumberland to review troops assembled to thwart the Whiskey Rebellion. During the 19th century, Cumberland was a key road, railroad and canal junction. It became the second-largest city in Maryland after the port city of Baltimore. It was nicknamed "The Queen City".[5] Cumberland was the terminus, and namesake, of the Cumberland Road (begun in 1811) that extended westward to the Ohio River at Wheeling, West Virginia. This was the first portion of what would be constructed as the National Road, which eventually reached Ohio, Indiana, and Illinois.[5] In the 1850s, many black fugitives reached their final stop on the underground railroad beneath the floor of the Emmanuel Episcopal Church. A maze of tunnels beneath and an abolitionist pastor above provided refuge before the final five mile trip to freedom in Pennsylvania.[3] The surrounding hillsides were mined for coal and iron ore, and harvested for timber that helped supply the Industrial Revolution. The Chesapeake and Ohio Canal had its western terminus here; it was built to improve the movement of goods between the Midwest and Washington, DC, the eastern terminus. Construction of railroads superseded use of the canal, as trains were faster and could carry more freight. The city developed as a major manufacturing center, with industries in glass, breweries, fabrics and tinplate. With the restructuring of heavy industry in the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic states following World War II, the city lost many jobs. As a result, its population has declined by nearly half, from 39,483 in the 1940 census to fewer than 20,000 today.[4][5] GeographyCumberland is in the Ridge and Valley physiographic province of the Appalachian Mountains at {{Coord|39.647687|-78.762869|type:city_region:US|format=dms|display=inline}} (39.647687, −78.762869),[6] at the junction of the North Branch of the Potomac River and Wills Creek. The majority of the land within the city lies in a valley created by the junction of these two streams. Interstate 68 runs through the city in an east/west direction, as does Alternate U.S. 40, the Old National Road. U.S. Highway 220 runs north/south. Parts of Wills Mountain, Haystack Mountain, and Shriver Ridge are also within the city limits. The abandoned Chesapeake and Ohio Canal is now part of the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal National Historical Park.[7] The canal's towpath is maintained, allowing travel by foot, horse or bicycle between Cumberland and Washington, D.C., a distance of about {{convert|185|mi|km}}. In recent years a separate trail/path extension, called the Great Allegheny Passage, has been developed that leads to Pittsburgh as its western terminus. Cumberland is the only city of at least 20,000 residents, outside of the Pittsburgh and DC metro areas, that lies on this combined 300+ mile stretch. According to the United States Census Bureau, the city has a total area of {{convert|10.15|sqmi|sqkm|2}}, of which {{convert|10.08|sqmi|sqkm|2}} is land and {{convert|0.07|sqmi|sqkm|2}} is water.[8] Cumberland Narrows{{main|Cumberland Narrows}}Cumberland is at the eastern entrance to the Cumberland Narrows (or "The Narrows"), a water gap along Wills Creek that crosses the central ridge of the Wills Mountain Anticline at a low elevation between Wills Mountain to the north and Haystack Mountain to the south. Cliffs and talus of the two mountains' Tuscarora quartzite caprock are prominent within the Narrows. These geological features provide Cumberland a western backdrop of the two mountains and the narrow gap between them. The Cumberland Narrows acts as a western gateway from Cumberland to the Appalachian Plateau and the Ohio River Valley beyond. The Old National Road, now Alternate U.S. 40, passes through the Narrows. The former Baltimore and Ohio Railroad's main line between Baltimore/Washington and Pittsburgh, now part of the CSX system, and a former line of the Western Maryland Railroad, now used by the steam- and diesel-powered excursion trains of the Western Maryland Scenic Railroad, also use this route. A prominent rocky outcropping at the south end of Wills Mountain in the Cumberland Narrows is known as Lover's Leap. ClimateCumberland lies at the beginning of the transition from a humid continental climate (Köppen Dfa) to a humid subtropical climate (Cfa), although bearing far more characteristics of the former, with a range of temperatures significantly lower than those in the central and eastern part of Maryland, mostly in the form of depressed nighttime lows. Cumberland is the only major city in Maryland to fall within the humid continental (Dfa) climate. Hagerstown lies in the middle of the transition zone. The region has four distinct seasons, with hot, humid summers, and moderate winters (compared to surrounding communities, Cumberland receives milder winters and less snow). Monthly daily mean temperatures range from {{convert|31.9|°F|1}} in January to {{convert|76.8|°F|1}} in July, with temperatures exceeding {{convert|90|°F}} on 34.5 days of the year and dipping to {{convert|10|°F}} or below on 7 nights per winter. Average seasonal snowfall totals {{convert|30.3|in|cm}}. The record high is {{convert|109|°F}} set in July 1936 and August 1918, both of which are state record highs, while the record low is {{convert|−17|°F}} set in February 1899.{{citation needed|date=December 2012}} {{Clear}}{{Weather box|location = Cumberland, Maryland (1981−2010 normals, extremes 1974−present) |single line = Y |Jan high F = 41.4 |Feb high F = 45.6 |Mar high F = 55.8 |Apr high F = 68.0 |May high F = 76.5 |Jun high F = 84.7 |Jul high F = 88.7 |Aug high F = 87.5 |Sep high F = 80.0 |Oct high F = 69.0 |Nov high F = 56.6 |Dec high F = 44.7 |year high F= 66.6 |Jan low F = 22.4 |Feb low F = 23.9 |Mar low F = 31.6 |Apr low F = 41.1 |May low F = 51.1 |Jun low F = 60.4 |Jul low F = 64.8 |Aug low F = 63.3 |Sep low F = 54.8 |Oct low F = 43.0 |Nov low F = 34.2 |Dec low F = 26.5 |year low F= 43.2 |Jan record high F = 75 |Feb record high F = 79 |Mar record high F = 90 |Apr record high F = 96 |May record high F = 98 |Jun record high F =103 |Jul record high F =105 |Aug record high F =105 |Sep record high F =102 |Oct record high F = 93 |Nov record high F = 87 |Dec record high F = 80 |Jan record low F = −14 |Feb record low F = −3 |Mar record low F = 3 |Apr record low F = 20 |May record low F = 25 |Jun record low F = 39 |Jul record low F = 46 |Aug record low F = 38 |Sep record low F = 31 |Oct record low F = 20 |Nov record low F = 10 |Dec record low F = −8 |precipitation colour = green |Jan precipitation inch = 2.66 |Feb precipitation inch = 2.37 |Mar precipitation inch = 3.37 |Apr precipitation inch = 3.30 |May precipitation inch = 4.02 |Jun precipitation inch = 3.28 |Jul precipitation inch = 3.56 |Aug precipitation inch = 3.17 |Sep precipitation inch = 3.23 |Oct precipitation inch = 2.57 |Nov precipitation inch = 2.98 |Dec precipitation inch = 2.85 |Jul snow inch = 0 |Aug snow inch = 0 |Sep snow inch = 0 |Oct snow inch = 0 |Nov snow inch = 0.6 |Dec snow inch = 5.6 |Jan snow inch = 8.7 |Feb snow inch = 7.8 |Mar snow inch = 6.0 |Apr snow inch = 0.2 |May snow inch = 0 |Jun snow inch = 0 |unit precipitation days = 0.01 in |Jan precipitation days = 11.6 |Feb precipitation days = 9.9 |Mar precipitation days = 11.2 |Apr precipitation days = 11.6 |May precipitation days = 13.3 |Jun precipitation days = 11.1 |Jul precipitation days = 10.6 |Aug precipitation days = 9.5 |Sep precipitation days = 9.2 |Oct precipitation days = 8.6 |Nov precipitation days = 9.6 |Dec precipitation days = 10.6 |unit snow days = 0.1 in |Jul snow days = 0 |Aug snow days = 0 |Sep snow days = 0 |Oct snow days = 0 |Nov snow days = 0.4 |Dec snow days = 1.9 |Jan snow days = 3.7 |Feb snow days = 3.1 |Mar snow days = 2.0 |Apr snow days = 0.1 |May snow days = 0 |Jun snow days = 0 |source 1 = NOAA[9][10] }} Demographics{{US Census population|1840= 2428 |1850= 6073 |1860= 4078 |1870= 8056 |1880= 10693 |1890= 12729 |1900= 17128 |1910= 21839 |1920= 29837 |1930= 37747 |1940= 39483 |1950= 37679 |1960= 33415 |1970= 29724 |1980= 25933 |1990= 23706 |2000= 21518 |2010= 20859 |estyear=2017 |estimate=19707 |estref=[11] |footnote=U.S. Decennial Census[12] }} The median household income $25,142, and the median family income was $34,500. Males had a median income of $29,484 versus $20,004 for females. The per capita income for the city was $15,813. About 15.3% of families and 19.8% of the population were below the poverty line, including 29.4% of those under age 18 and 10.3% of those age 65 or over. The Cumberland, MD-WV Metropolitan Statistical Area ranked 305th out of 318 metropolitan areas in per capita income.[2] In 2007, Forbes ranked the Cumberland Metro as having the 6th-lowest cost of living in the USA, based on an index of cost of housing, utilities, transportation and other expenditures.[13] In 2007, The Baltimore Sun newspaper, citing the National Association of Realtors figures on home prices, stated that while most areas were stagnant, Cumberland home prices were rising by more than 17%, the highest in the country.[14] In July 2007, Washington Post writer Stephanie Cavanaugh wrote that the great quality of living in Cumberland had attracted many urbanites to the area.[15] Population trendsPopulation decline from 1950–1990 was due to a string of industrial plant closures. Plants such as Pittsburgh Plate Glass, Allegany Munitions and Celanese closed down and relocated as part of widespread industrial restructuring after WWII. The 1987 closure of the Kelly Springfield Tire Plant marked a turning point, as it was the last major manufacturing plant in the city limits to close its doors. The population of the city has continued to decline since 1990, with the 2010 census population of 20,859 the lowest since the 1900 census. 2010 censusAs of the census[16] of 2010, there were 20,859 people, 9,223 households, and 4,982 families residing in the city.

The racial makeup of the city was 89.4% White, 6.4% African American, 0.2% Native American, 0.9% Asian, 0.1% Pacific Islander, 0.3% from other races, and 2.8% from two or more races. Hispanic or Latino people of any race were 1.2% of the population. There were 9,223 households of which 25.9% had children under the age of 18 living with them, 34.0% were married couples living together, 15.1% had a female householder with no husband present, 4.9% had a male householder with no wife present, and 46.0% were non-families. 38.9% of all households were made up of individuals and 18.1% had someone living alone who was 65 years of age or older.

The heart of the downtown area is Baltimore Street. Formerly the main thoroughfare through the city, Baltimore Street is now a brick pedestrian mall. The street is lined with large multi-story commercial buildings, most of which were built in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. These buildings, which were formerly banks, hotels, and department stores, are relics of the city's former wealth and importance during the industrial age. They now contain more tourist oriented businesses such as sidewalk cafes, antique stores, boutiques and art galleries. Baltimore Street hosts some of the city's biggest sidewalk festivals and block parties. Western Maryland Railway StationA block west of the downtown pedestrian mall is the Western Maryland Railway Station. This early 20th-century train station is home to the Western Maryland Scenic Railroad, known regionally as "Mountain Thunder". The Western Maryland Scenic Railroad offers three hour round trip tours from Cumberland to Frostburg using restored 1916 Baldwin Steam Locomotive Number 734 or "Mountain Thunder" (Currently out of service). The Western Maryland Railway Station is part of the.[17] Canal Place Heritage Area, the first in the state of Maryland. Arts & Entertainment DistrictDowntown Cumberland's Arts & Entertainment District is home to the Allegany Arts Council and its Saville Gallery, the Allegany Museum, the Cumberland Theatre, the Arts at Canal Place Cooperative Gallery, the New Embassy Theatre, the Cumberland Music Academy, MettleArts Studio & Foundry, the Arteco Gallery and Institute for Creative Enterprise, Windsor Hall (a multi-purpose performance venue), the Gilchrist Museum of the Arts, the Gordon-Roberts House, the Graphicus Atelier print-making studio, and a variety of retail and specialty stores. Seasonal events include the Cumberland Comes Alive music series, Saturday Arts Walks, and the annual Mountain Maryland Artists’ Studio Tour.[18]{{nonspecific|date=June 2017}} Canal Place Heritage AreaCanal Place is located at the western terminus of the C&O Canal. A national park has been created in the city center at the intersection of the railroad, C&O Canal, and Allegheny Highlands Trail of Maryland at Canal Place. While at the Heritage Area, visitors can ride the Western Maryland Scenic Railroad, tour a full-scale replica canal boat, visit the C&O Canal National Historical Park Cumberland Visitor Center, get information about attractions and events in Allegany County, hike or bike ride on the canal towpath, or attend unique festivals and events like C&O CanalFest. A re-watering project is underway which when completed will allow visitors to ride in replica canal boats through a portion of the old canal. The Chesapeake and Ohio Canal National Historical Park is {{convert|184.5|mi|km}} following the Potomac River from Georgetown in Washington, D.C. to Cumberland. Its towpath is popular with runners, hikers, and bicyclists. There are campsites approximately every five miles along the trail. The Great Allegheny PassageThe C&O Canal has its Western Terminus at Canal Place, and it is possible to travel by foot or bicycle from here to Washington, D.C. along the canal towpath - a distance of roughly {{convert|185|mi|km}}. The Allegheny Highlands Trail of Maryland is a {{convert|21|mi|km|adj=on}} section of an expansive hiking/biking trail starting in Pittsburgh and ending in Cumberland where it connects with the C&O Canal towpath and onto Washington DC. Together, the C&O Canal towpath and the Allegheny Highlands Trails are part of the 315 Mile Great Allegheny Passage. Rocky Gap Casino Resort and State ParkJust outside Cumberland, the Rocky Gap Lodge and Golf Resort sits in the valley between Evitt's Mountain and Martin's Mountain. The resort is located on the shore of the {{convert|243|acre|km2|adj=on}} Lake Habeeb in Rocky Gap State Park, and boasts Maryland's only Jack Nicklaus Signature Golf Course. Allegany MuseumLocated on the Downtown Cumberland Pedestrian Mall, the Allegany Museum exhibits the local history and architecture of the Allegany region and Cumberland area. Some of the exhibits include: The history and architecture of Allegany County, the history of Kelly Springfield Tire Company, MeadWestvaco, prehistoric life, the Cumberland glassware industry, fire prevention, folk art, the Cumberland brewing industry, and more. It is open from May to December.[19]{{nonspecific|date=June 2017}} The Narrows and Lovers LeapThe Narrows is a compact notched valley that Wills Creek has carved into Wills Mountain. Inventor Frederick John Bahr bought Wills Mountain and built his log cabin on top. The National Road (U.S. Route 40) and a number of railroad lines pass through this steep, narrow, and rocky river valley on the edge of Cumberland. On the northeast side of Wills Mountain, sits a rocky outcropping known as Lover's Leap. The name comes from a Native American Romeo and Juliet legend. The tale tells how a jilted lover met his end by jumping off this ledge. Today, the rocks high above the water provide extensive views of the Allegheny Mountains. Lover's Leap has been frequently romanticized by postcard pictures of this valley, including those taken by George Steward in 1950 and published in the 1953 book U.S. 40. Lover's Leap is {{convert|1652|ft|m}} above sea level and made up of oddly squared projectories of rock, from its top, all the way down to the National Highway (U.S. Rte. 40) below. The City of Cumberland and the neighboring states of Pennsylvania and West Virginia may be seen from this point. Other attractions

Notable landmarksSome of Cumberland's most architecturally significant homes are located in the Washington Street Historic District. Considered the elite residential area when the city was at its economic peak, Washington Street was home to the region's leading citizens including the president of the C&O Canal. Significant public buildings include the Allegany County Courthouse, Allegany County Library, and Emmanuel Episcopal Church, located on the site of Fort Cumberland. It features Gothic Revival architecture with three large Tiffany windows, fort tunnels, and ammunition magazine cellars.[20] The 1850 Emmanuel Episcopal Church, standing at the eastern end of the Washington Street Historic District, is one of Maryland's most outstanding examples of early Gothic Revival architecture. The Allegany County Courthouse dominates the city's skyline. It was designed in 1893 by local architect Wright Butler. The Queen City Hotel was built by the B&O during the 1870s. The battle to preserve it was lost when the building was demolished in 1972. Temple B'er Chayim's 1865 Gothic Revival building is one of the oldest surviving synagogue buildings in the United States. Also of note are the Western Maryland Scenic Railroad, the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal National Historical Park Terminus at Canal Place, the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal National Historical Park, the Allegheny Highlands Trail of Maryland, the Allegany Arts Council, Rocky Gap State Park, Cumberland Narrows along Wills Creek, on Alternate U.S. 40. GovernmentCumberland's has Council–manager government composed of an elected mayor, four elected city council members, and an appointed city administrator. Cumberland's current mayor is Ray Morriss, who was elected in 2018 after defeating two-term incumbent Brian Grim.[21] The current city council members are Eugene Frazier, Seth Bernard, Laurie Marchini, and Richard "Rock" Cioni.[22] The city council holds public meetings twice per month.[23] Cumberland is in Maryland's 6th congressional district and is represented in the United States Congress by Representative David Trone and Senators Ben Cardin and Chris Van Hollen. Education{{main|List of schools and libraries in Cumberland, Maryland}}In 1864 the state legislature provided funds, and a structure for obtaining local funds from taxes and private donations for the purpose of funding schools for Negroes. The first public school for African-Americans in Cumberland operated in a colored YMCA on Independence Street, and was named the Mary Hoye school. In 1923 a new school for blacks was built on Frederick Street. In 1941 an election was held of students and faculty, and the school was renamed George Washington Carver School. In addition to serving the local population, many black people from surrounding areas in West Virginia sent their children to Carver because of the inadequate local facilities.[24] The schools were integrated in 1955, when 54 negro children attended the white schools. In 1956, 3 black students became the first to graduated from Allegany County's newly integrated schools.[25] The offices of Allegany County Public Schools are located in Cumberland. The city is served by Allegany High School and Fort Hill High School, the private Bishop Walsh School, The Center for Career and Technical Education of Allegany County, and Calvary Christian Academy, and elementary schools such as Cresaptown Elementary School, South Penn Elementary School, Northeast Elementary School, John Humbird, and Cash Valley Elementary School.
