Location
Get Directions
Somerville underwent a colossal transformation around the turn of the 21st century. A huge revitalization effort began in the 1990s, and by 2006 Somerville was recognized as the best-run city in Massachusetts. Nowadays, the city is better known for its thriving artistic community and constant self-improvement efforts by citizens and government alike.
There is heavy emphasis on local businesses, which are spread around Somerville in various commercial squares rather than a centralized downtown—this gives folks lots of options when selecting an apartment. Much of the arts and leisure activity is centered around Davis Square, well known for its dining, nightlife, and music venues.
The community is generally quite walkable, and MBTA service makes it exceptionally easy to get to nearby downtown Boston. With the campuses of Harvard, MIT, and Tufts surrounding the city, Somerville is within arm’s reach of some of America’s finest universities.

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.
