Cumberland County, NC (population 299,060, Census 2006 est.) was settled in the early 1700’s by European immigrants known as Highland Scots. Its early prosperity was due to its being a riverfront distribution center for early settlers. Today it has continued to grow as a key area of the state, and home to Fort Bragg and the Pope Air force Base. The county seat of Fayetteville is known as “America’s Home Town." A unique county resident service, and one greatly appreciated, is the pilot project:  Cumberland County Prescription Drug Discount Card.
