Lewiston–Auburn (L–A) are twin cities in Androscoggin County, Maine, USA. Together, they have a population of 59,647 in a combined . The cities are commonly called "Cities of the Androscoggin," as they are seated along the banks of the Androscoggin River which separates them.〔http://www.hmdb.org/marker.asp?marker=1050〕 They share infrastructure and transportation, such as the Lewiston-Auburn CityLink, the Lewiston and Auburn Railroad Company〔(THE LEWISTON AND AUBURN RAILROAD COMPANY 1872–2009 BY DOUGLAS HODGKIN ) Maine History Store〕 and the Auburn/Lewiston Municipal Airport. They also form the Lewiston-Auburn Metropolitan Statistical Area, which encompasses Androscoggin County. The Lewiston–Auburn Economic Growth Council has been promoting the cities as one community for decades in its campaign to promote growth in industry and business. ==French-Canadian heritage== The twin cities have a long history of French-Canadian immigration, and still retain a very large percentage of citizens who identify as so. In the 2000 census, 19.4% of those five and older in the cities combined (more so on the Lewiston side of the river) said that they spoke French.〔(MLA Language Map Data Center – Lewiston, Maine 2000 )〕〔(MLA Language Map Data Center – Auburn, Maine 2000 )〕
