Sunderland was originally named 'Swampfield' -- a name so discouraging that early colonists renamed it after the Earl of Sunderland to draw in settlers. That small act of rebranding stuck, and today this Connecticut River town carries a quiet character that sets it apart from its busier neighbors. Historic Main Street is lined with 19th-century architecture, farms stretch to the horizon, and Mount Sugarloaf and Mount Toby State Forest frame the eastern edge of town. Nine miles north of Amherst, Sunderland offers easy access to the Five College Consortium corridor while maintaining a quieter setting.
Rentals here lean toward single-family homes, Cape Cods, Colonial Revival houses, and saltbox-style properties that reflect the town's deep New England roots. Townhomes and smaller multi-family buildings round out the options, with very few high-rises.
UMass Amherst, roughly 18 minutes south, anchors the regional economy.

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.
