Neighborhood

The Codman Square-East Codman Hill neighborhood of Boston sits eight miles south of downtown. Several MBTA bus lines crisscross the area, providing residents easy access to other Boston neighborhoods. Packed with multi-family houses and apartments, the area features a commercial district at the intersection of Talbot Avenue and Washington Street.

Shop locally for groceries at Alexa Market and America's Food Basket, where you can find a wide range of international pantry staples. On those nights when you're too busy to cook, stop by China Station for spicy Kung Pao and fried rice. On weekends, head over to the historic Harambee Park to take part in recreational activities at the Sportsmen Tennis and Recreational Center. Sign up for tennis lessons, play a Friday night match, or use one of the treadmills in its fitness center.

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.
