West Springfield is a great city. It is a very suburban city and has a great community feel. It has access to various highways and outstanding local and mainstream restaurants and shops. Furthermore, the town is very kept up, and is very safe! I wish the downtown area were aided a little more financially to help some families and to assist in some upkeep.
West Springfield is great! There are lots of stores and restaurants in the area. The school district is also amazing!
