Hull, Massachusetts sits on a narrow peninsula curling along the southern edge of Boston Harbor, making it one of the most distinctively positioned towns in the entire state. At just three square miles, this compact coastal community packs in miles of shoreline, including the well-known Nantasket Beach, a stretch of sandy waterfront that has drawn visitors since the 19th century. President Calvin Coolidge and Rose Kennedy's father, "Honey Fitz" Fitzgerald, once summered here, a detail that speaks to Hull's long-standing pull as a place worth calling home.
Daily life revolves around the water, with Nantasket Avenue serving as the town's casual main corridor. Fort Revere Park offers sweeping views of the Boston skyline and harbor islands, while the Hull Life Saving Museum keeps the town's maritime heritage alive. UMass Boston is roughly 18 miles away, keeping Hull within reach of greater Boston's academic and employment centers.
