Neighborhood

Just six miles north of downtown Boston, Prospect Hill in Somerville offers residents an energetic community filled with independent shops and restaurants. Like many places in Somerville and other nearby communities in Cambridge and Charleston, this neighborhood has rich ties to American history. In the 1700s, George Washington ordered the raising of the first American flag on Prospect Hill Tower, which still stands today.

Several buses run through the neighborhood, connecting workers to Boston and Cambridge without the need for a car. The commercial district centers on Union Square, with many triple-decker homes and apartments for rent packed into the nearby side streets. Locally owned restaurants and bars charm locals and visitors each day. Residents love starting their early mornings with a walk over to award-winning Union Square Donuts to pick up handmade donuts with creative flavors.
