Located seven miles west of downtown Boston, Newton combines residential comfort with easy city access. Known as "The Garden City," this community features tree-lined streets, expansive parks, and thirteen distinct villages. The housing market reflects the area's desirability, with current average rents ranging from $2,415 for studios to $4,899 for three-bedroom homes. Crystal Lake offers swimming and outdoor recreation, while the historic Heartbreak Hill, a challenging section of the Boston Marathon route, provides scenic views of the area.

Newton's educational landscape includes Boston College's Gothic campus in Chestnut Hill and highly regarded public schools. Housing options span from apartments near MBTA stations in Newton Centre to historic Victorian homes in West Newton and contemporary residences in Newtonville. The Newton History Museum at Jackson Homestead, a documented Underground Railroad site, preserves local history.

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.
