I moved to Framingham, Massachusetts to attend Framingham State University and one of my favorite things about FSU is the surrounding area and city of Framingham. While the city has few options for nightlife it is a nice and welcoming area for families to set up camp! This area has various options for fun and cuisine if you know where to look. The city is also surrounded by neighboring cities and towns that offer fun and entertainment for all ages!
I've lived in Framingham a good portion of my life, and despite some of the issues the city, it is home. The diversity is good, and up until the high school, there is a good diversity of schools. Sadly there is only one high school which is severely overcrowded, and despite the population not wanting more apartments, and more things that would actually benefit the community. The community itself is the highlight. There are several small business, a lot of good food, and I must say the libraries are fantastic.
Enjoy living here overall! Many places to go out to eat, as well as shopping. Love how there are convenient stores I can go to, especially Target and Bjs when grocery shopping.
