Neighborhood

The coastal area between Boston and New Hampshire, the North Shore is a massive cluster of cities including Salem, Gloucester, Beverly, Essex, Rockport, and more. Rocky coastlines, wetlands, beaches, and harbors fill this area with natural beauty. This historic and cultural region of Massachusetts offers parks, golf courses, museums, historical landmarks, and so much more.

Tour a medieval style castle from the early 1900s, Hammond Castle Museum, on the coast of Gloucester, or visit Castle Hill in Ipswich for 165 acres of land with a historic mansion and access to Crane Beach. Travel over to Historic Downtown Salem to learn about the Salem Witch Trials, and venture to Manchester by the Sea on Cape Ann, the setting for Kenneth Lonergan’s 2016 film Manchester by the Sea, to admire this iconic, scenic beach town.

With so many cities to choose from in the North Shore cluster, there’s something for everyone in this coastal oasis.

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.
