An hour west of Boston nestled against the Assabet River Wildlife Refuge is Sudbury, a historic town in Middlesex County. Incorporated in 1639, Sudbury is full of monuments to its colonial past, including the Wayside Inn, allegedly the oldest operating inn in the country.
Check out Boston Post Rd. for a variety of cuisines, including Thai, sushi, Indian, and more. Clover Food Lab is another popular spot that’s set up shop in the local Whole Foods and churns out some of the most interesting combinations in the area.
Sudbury will really appeal to families, thanks its highly-rated schools and the competitive athletics departments within them. The area also holds its own on price, and is typically more affordable than the surrounding towns. Commuters will love the nearby I-495, I-90, and rail service that stops in Boston.
