Neighborhood

East Somerville combines the quiet charm of historic homes and modern apartments for rent with the activity of an energetic business district. The neighborhood sits less than five miles north of downtown Boston. The transportation hub of Sullivan Square bordering the neighborhood connects commuters to both Boston and Cambridge by bus and subway. There are several small parks for residents to enjoy a breath of fresh air.

The center of East Somerville is Broadway where you can find small businesses and restaurants offering diverse cuisine. Locals love the annual Foodie Crawl held here, which showcases international food options found in this neighborhood. You can try injera at Fasika Ethiopian Restaurant or the meat buffet at Gauchao Brazilian Cuisine. If you are an art lover, check out Mudflat Studios to admire the ceramic creations or try it out yourself by taking a wheel-throwing class in its brightly-lit space.
