History
•
Sitting roughly six miles from downtown Boston, Arlington is arguably one of the best options in the area for families. The town boasts excellent schools and one of the lowest crime rates in the region. The community is very conducive to bicycling, with the Minuteman Bikeway connecting several of the town’s neighborhoods and many of the busier roadways incorporating dedicated bike lanes.
Nowhere in town is very far from a public park or a golf course, making outdoor recreation highly accessible from anywhere you may choose to rent. Just outside of town, attractions like the Middlesex Fells Reservation, Stone Zoo, and Walden Pond State Reservation offer more good reasons to get outside. To the south, the Concord Turnpike connects Arlington to I-95, making it easy to get anywhere you need to go.
