What U.S. city was John Ford raised in?

What U.S. city was John Ford raised in? John Ford was raised in Portland, Maine.

Although Ford was born in nearby Cape Elizabeth on February 1, 1894, his family lived in Portland, where he spent his formative years. The Feeney household was located on Sheridan Street in Munjoy Hill, a Portland neighborhood with a substantial Irish immigrant population. His father supported the family through several occupations, including farming, fishing, laboring, saloon keeping, and local political work.

Ford attended Portland High School, where he played football and acquired the nickname “Bull.” That nickname reflected his forceful style on the field and became part of the local lore surrounding his youth. His Portland upbringing connected him to the working-class Irish-American world that later appeared in themes across his films.

Savannah, Chicago, and Boston are not the correct city. Boston is relevant because his father arrived there in 1872, but Ford himself grew up in Portland, Maine, after the family settled there.
