As its namesake implies, Amherst Center is a neighborhood right in the middle of town. The neighborhood is home to two institutions of higher education: Amherst College and University of Massachusetts, Amherst. The neighborhood feels like a mix of urban and suburban living featuring classic New England architectural styles. Amherst Center is an artsy town with literary and musical roots. Visit Emily Dickinson Museum and learn about the birthplace of the famous poet. Local music lovers and musicians frequent renowned shops like Stamell String Instruments, Fretted Instrument Workshop, and Mystery Train Records. The community hosts multiple music events throughout the year. Bring your friends to the annual Jamherst, a two night festival of live original music including indie rock, bluegrass, alternative, and electronica. In the summer enjoy free outdoor concerts at Downtown Beats.

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.
