Somerville is a great place to visit! It has a lively Main Street with restaurants and cafes galore! From family friendly restaurants like Alfonso's, to expensive dine-in experiences as the one offered by Wolfgang's, it is truly an exciting little town to explore. Somerville also has several parks nearby.
Somerville is an amazing town that really brings out a downtown true vibe. The suburbs are diverse with an amazing distribution of space that is admirable. The schools smart and athletic. With an inforced police patrol, the streets feel very safe from sunrise to sunset. The downtown is full of fun with a variety of stores and restaurants, providing an excellent economy. The town always seems to be organizing events that are joyful. My favorite event is the summer car show gatherings that happen every Friday during the summer-fall season.
We bought our house a year ago and could not be happier! The neighborhood is very walkable, neighbors are nice and the downtown has great restaurants and bars!
