30 minutes south of Boston, the town of Avon encompasses less than five square miles of land. It’s a tightly packed locale with friendly neighbors and an active community. Incorporated in 1888, Avon used to be a center for manufacturing and industry, but today it’s more of a hotspot for families and those looking to escape the hustle and bustle of Boston.
You can be anywhere in 10 minutes no matter where your apartment is in Avon. The businesses on Memorial Dr. and Main St. range from sandwich shops and cafes to caterers and mechanics, making it easy to take care of your usual errands without leaving town.
Cottages and bungalows neighbor more traditional homes, surrounded by lush greenery that’s mirrored in DW Park, Avon’s sole recreation space.
