Neighborhood

People love living in Dorchester, and the Uphams Corner-Jones Hill section is no exception. Just a couple of blocks west of the University of Massachusetts Boston, Upham's Corner is a historic neighborhood located in Dorchester, roughly three miles south of Downtown Boston. The neighborhood is mostly residential, full of big, beautiful houses and several lush public parks. The northwest corner of the neighborhood contains a cluster of shops, cafes, and other businesses, as well as the Strand Theatre, a historic, beautifully restored performing arts venue.

Upham's Corner contains the oldest house in Boston, the James Blake House, built in 1661. It is also the location of the Dorchester North Burying Ground, dating back to 1633 and containing some of Dorchester's most famous founding citizens, including William Stoughton -- the Chief Justice during the Salem witch trials of 1692. This burial ground also contains 40 unknown Revolutionary War soldiers.

School data provided by The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
