What's To Love

You will have to take time to enjoy Semolina’s modern vibe, La Cascia’s bread, & Sandwiches at Bob’s Italian Foods.

What's Not To Love

The streets around Tufts University can be busy during the school year...and especially graduation weekend! It’s a little busier of the residential options because of its close proximity to the Mystic Valley Parkway and other main arteries.

Is it for me?

Who is this neighborhood for

Perfect residents have a commute north of Boston and are okay being a little further out from the highly coveted Davis Square and Porter Square
