Neighborhood

Located in a bustling commercial district in Cambridge, Massachusetts, the neighborhood of West Cambridge is a thriving urban area that’s filled with family-friendly destinations. Most notable for its direct access to Harvard Square, a famous shopping, dining, and entertainment hub, locals have all of the local restaurants, specialty shops, and ornate theaters to choose from like the Jose Mateo Ballet Theatre.

The MBTA runs several bus lines to the area, giving commuters connections to the red line Harvard Square Station that takes them to other parts of the city. Though West Cambridge has immediate access to everything that’s offered in the city of Cambridge, including Harvard University and its attractions, West Cambridge is only six miles from Boston, so the options for food, retail, sports, and entertainment are endless.

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.
