Get Directions
Just six miles north of downtown Boston, Prospect Hill in Somerville offers residents an energetic community filled with independent shops and restaurants. Like many places in Somerville and other nearby communities in Cambridge and Charleston, this neighborhood has rich ties to American history. In the 1700s, George Washington ordered the raising of the first American flag on Prospect Hill Tower, which still stands today.
Several buses run through the neighborhood, connecting workers to Boston and Cambridge without the need for a car. The commercial district centers on Union Square, with many triple-decker homes and apartments for rent packed into the nearby side streets. Locally owned restaurants and bars charm locals and visitors each day. Residents love starting their early mornings with a walk over to award-winning Union Square Donuts to pick up handmade donuts with creative flavors.

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.
