Neighborhood

In a city so rich with history and culture, Fenway Park is arguably Boston’s most beloved attraction, and Audubon Circle is the perfect neighborhood for experiencing the electric energy surrounding “The Cathedral.” Although Fenway is only seven blocks from even the farthest point in Audubon Circle, it is far from the only noteworthy landmark within walking distance: amenities as diverse as Boston Beer Works, the Emerald Necklace park system, and a multiplex movie theater are all easily accessible on foot.

Most of the local apartments—which range from highly affordable to upscale-- are situated above ground-floor businesses in gorgeous historic brick buildings. Just across Saint Marys Street to the west, locals can reach a row of diverse restaurants, bakeries, and grocery stores. The Charles River and Boston University’s campus sit just a few blocks to the north; Amory Park and the New England Hebrew Academy are just minutes to the west.

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.
