City - Charlestown

Charlestown’s history is one of its most defining characteristics—several stops along the Freedom Trail can be found here, and landmarks such as the Bunker Hill Memorial and the USS Constitution dominate the landscape.

What is it like to live in Charlestown? Well, for a small neighborhood, Charlestown is packed with public parks and playgrounds, providing welcome green spaces to break up the urban environment. Ferry service from the Navy Yard connects Charlestown to Long Wharf and the North End. One benefit of Charlestown’s dense layout is that much of the area is highly walkable, whether you’re headed from your apartment to work, the grocery store, or just out for a cup of coffee.

School data provided by 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.
