Ashland Cancer Cluster

Residents of Ashland, Massachusetts have been living in a cancer cluster for the past 40 years.

A seven year study found that people who grew up in the late 1960’s – early 1980s that swam in Ashland’s ponds are two or three times more likely to develop cancer than those who were not in contact with the water. (cnn.com)

For this reason, Ashland has been identified as a cancer cluster.
