Current Resident: There are a lot of opportunities to connect with the community and the cultural melting pot that is present there is very comforting! Most would be skeptical of coming to such a place because of what is is usually tied to, but there are other aspects of the town that truly encompass the excellence of Brockton.... Read 267 reviews

Current Resident: For those who bashed the city the Mayor, you are entitled to your opinion. However, I believe the city has transformed a lot in positive ways because of the Mayor’s ability to lead. I’ve lived in the city for almost 10 years and I can tell you that real estate tax and water bills are one of the lowest around Boston. Schools are OK, but parks and playgrounds are beautiful and plenty. I believe it’s getting better every day and like me, you will not regret a bit once you move here. Keep in mind, when you live on main streets, you’ll most likely get more issues regardless what town you’re in.... Read 78 reviews

Current Resident: Malden is a unique and quiet town, at least from the part where I live. It has very nice pizza shops and boba places to come eat and drink with friends, the community in Malden is very caring as they advocate for donations to the poor and strive for the upmost happiness as well. I enjoy coming outside and walking through the park every once and a while and playing sports with friends and family. And the diversity here is wonderful as well, there are many people with different kinds of backgrounds and some with similar backgrounds too. They also have a nearby mosque where I can gather and pray with many Muslim people and unite with a peaceful Muslim community. Knowing that there is a space and area for people like me is what ensures my safety and peace and know that everyday can be a good day here in Malden.... Read 190 reviews

Parent: My son has had an incredibly positive experience at Lawrence Academy. The teachers are wonderful and nurturing; and the advisor program encourages involvement and good study habits. Lawrence Academy is a community rich with actives; arts and music, athletics, clubs, charitable events as well as leadership opportunities. The staff and administration are continually providing many different ways for students to become involved, promoting the diverse interests of all the students. By joining the soccer team his freshman year, my son made lots of great friends very quickly, both other freshman and upper class-men. He has found LA to be a warm and welcoming environment. Lawrence is a great balance of academics, activities and community. I'm so thankful to have found this perfect place for my son to grow and develop throughout his high school years.

Current Resident: I appreciate the diversity of Lowell. I have come across multiple different backgrounds and have come to see that there are communities within the community! There is a large Cambodian Community that support each other with resources, markets, and networking. Though the commute can be more difficult, Lowell does still have commuting times on 495. If you happen to be a commuting taking public transportation; just a heads up, get to know the LRTA bus the routes and how Lowell's system works because it is not the same as the MBTA. It also runs at specific times so understand when you would need to leave home in order to catch the bus. This could quite possibly the most annoying thing about living in Lowell when you grew up in Boston. Lowell looks to improve their school system and has taken steps to better their hiring practices. A better education for the children of Lowell is very promising. Overall, Lowell does not have much of a nightlife but still offered a great community.... Read 189 reviews

Current Resident: I have lived in Revere my entire life. I attended public school in Revere until 5th grade when I left the school system and went to a private school in a nearby town. As a member of the town sports leagues and the friends and family that live here, I have always been a part of the large, diverse community that Revere provides. Although this town has its downsides, like most towns do, the pros of growing up here outweigh the cons tremendously. Living in a diverse community has opened my eyes to many cultures and experiences as well as shopping in so many different businesses. One of my closest family friends owns a Halah Market and this is something that is not considered common in surrounding towns.... Read 113 reviews

It's also walkable too. The train goes through this town with multiple stops and many buses as well. The education here is not too bad as well.

Police presence is prominent which is reassuring, reinforces a sense of safety while out and about and they are professionals. Neighborhoods and streets are well maintained for the most part, very rare to come across a rundown building. Downtown Marlborough is pleasant with charming little shops and friendly staff at the local post office.

Current Resident: Haverhill overall is a great small city with just about everything you could want. It's one of the more affordable suburbs still within a reasonable drive of Boston (very commutable) as well as having 2 train stops on the commuter line. There's a solid sense of community, especially on the Bradford side. The Bradford neighborhood is one of the best hidden gems in metro Boston. Still affordable, but has a very quiet neighborhood feel that is very safe and walkable. The 5-star rating is based on "bang for your housing dollar". Are there places in Massachusetts more desirable? Of course, but you won't find a place with a higher affordability/convenience/quality-of-life ratio than Haverhill. In addition to the commuter line stops, you can grab the Downeaster train for an affordable and convenient trip to great destinations like Portland, Freeport and Brunswick Maine. Also, right next to tax-free shopping. There's a reason that a good majority of people that live here never leave.... Read 144 reviews

Current Resident: Brookline's public transportation is excellent, and restaurants and businesses are everywhere in the historic districts, making shopping and dining an overall experience. LIVING in Brookline is a little bit more difficult though, as all parking is reserved for shoppers and visitors, so if you plan on being a resident here, plan on renting a separate home for your vehicle (Craigslist). You're a stones-throw from most activities though, and it may be more advantageous for those who can to avoid having a car all together. The only other downside to living in Brookline is the cost of rent. A one bedroom apartment can cost anywhere from $1,800 to $3,000 on the high end, so be prepared!

Alum: I can only speak of my experience of going to Shady Hill many years ago, 1950-1961, but I have kept up my awareness of how the school has done since then. I still sense the values I learned there as a child, and which I think are still at the heart of this school, ones I still cherish: kindness, openness, a love for learning and excellence, an appreciation of art, music, and crafts, enthusiasm for sports and the outdoors, a warm interest in the diverse traditions of humanity. I went to Choate and to Harvard, and then to graduate schools in the U.S. and in Europe, and I still look back to Shady Hill as probably the best school I ever attended in many ways. Highly recommended!... Read 11 reviews

Alum: At Groton, I feel that I have been able to become a more independent and conscientious person during my time at this school. The best thing about this school is the resources that it provides the students. Here, I feel that I can be whoever I like because the teachers, dorm parents, coaches, and community is supportive of everyone's quirks, interests, and dreams. The teachers are approachable and dedicated, and work hard to provide students with a positive experience and I have made some of the truest and most diverse background friends. However, while at my time here, I have noticed that there is a toxically competitive culture here. Moreover, sometimes it is hard to get leadership positions in clubs because one has to be "connected" or popular, and the unsafe hook-up culture NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED! Overall, a great school, and despite the school's imperfections, I would not trade my experience at Groton for anything else in the world.... Read 64 reviews
