Neighborhood

Located only 10 minutes from the prestigious Harvard University and 30 minutes from downtown Boston, Cambridge Highlands gives residents a slice of suburbia next door to the funky, urban parts of Cambridge. The area is also close to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Lesley University. Safe streets and strong schools attract families here, while access to public transit makes for easy commutes. Well-manicured public parks surround the area, including the scenic grounds of Fresh Pond. Locals flock to beautiful Fresh Pond to let their pets roam free at the dog park or take a relaxing stroll around the lake. Though the neighborhood tends to be quiet, nightlife and restaurants are plentiful in nearby Porter and Davis Squares, along with the cultural offerings of Harvard Square farther south.

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.

absolutely terrible

The only thing worse than the empty promises made is the lack of maintenance and care shown at all. Would avoid

6/25/21
horrible building, even worse management

The apartment building is almost as horrible as the company managing the property. Since moving in, there have been several safety issues, plumbing problems, and the apartment I rented was not move in ready, it was also filthy. The dog park is full of broken glass and dog poop and if you try to get in touch with the management, you will be ignored. Save yourself the mold exposure and frustration and do not move into this dump.
