Overall South Hadley is a great community with something for everyone. There are quiet, closed off neighborhoods along with other neighborhoods being conveniently located next to the schools, mount holyoke, or the commons. If you ever looking for something to do in South Hadley, you can head over to the commons, by yourself, or with a group of friends to enjoy a variety of great dining options, small shops, and even a movie theater. All of the South Hadley public schools provide a great education that prepares students to graduate and be a successful member in their community.
Middle school is the worst. School committee sucks and the schools are falling apart. Do not move here!
South Hadley is an interesting little place. It may look like your average New England town at first glance, but after living here for nearly 16 years I can tell you that is not *entirely* true. My favorite thing about the town is our history and landscapes. The canal that runs through South Hadley Falls was the first navigable canal in the country and Mount Holyoke College is one of the oldest institutions of higher education of women. We are nestled in a valley which provides amazing hikes and views. We have fields, forests, reservoirs and gardens. I used to hate living here because of the people (most of whom aren't all that great) but I realized it's not the town's fault.
