Across the Neponset River from Downtown Boston lies the Quincy neighborhood of Montclair. Commuters drive eight miles north on Interstate 93 to reach downtown, while residents without a car enjoy easy access using several bus lines or the Red Line's North Quincy subway station. This quiet residential community of apartments and bungalow-style houses provides a small-town atmosphere within a larger urban environment.
There’s a diverse mix of cuisine that belies Montclair’s relatively small size. Most of Montclair's businesses are found along Hancock Street near North Quincy station. Residents gather at Assembly Bar on Sundays for comfort food while watching the New England Patriots.
