Norton massachusetts is an exceptional town to live in. Norton has convenient location to many MBTA stations and is easy to get into Boston and Providence by public transport. Traffic on the other hand, is out of control in this town. It takes over thirty minutes to get from one side of the town to the rest 24/7 365 days a year. There are many residents of this populous town, and the cost of living is through the roof. Many houses sell for millions of dollars and beyond that. The houses are not affordable for many and that tends to deter people from moving there. There are amazing cultural programs, many opportunities for job growth, and plenty of grocery stores, restaurants, and many things to do. Norton MA feels like a city in many ways and is good for people who do not want to live in Boston. Norton residents tend to be very liberal. Overall, Norton is an affluent, thriving town and will improve your quality of life greatly.
Norton, MA is a great little town south of Boston! My family moved here about 6 years ago. It is a great place to raise a family and the public schools are really great! There is a lot to do around town and everything outside the town is just a quick drive down the street. I wish to see more diversity in the future!
I think Norton is a safe and welcoming town. Being born and raised in Norton, I don't have much to compare it to, but I love my friends and the community is very kind. There are many nice local restaurants and fun high school events. The local college campus is beautiful, like much of the rest of the forest-covered town.
