Neighborhood

Downtown Watertown is a great option for renters who want to be surrounded by amenities while being convenient to Boston. Downtown Watertown is 10 miles from Boston and only five miles from Cambridge, giving renters easy access to both cities and several institutions including Boston University, Harvard University, and Massachusetts Institute of Technology.

Downtown Watertown blends the new and the old, with many rentals consisting of condos and apartments in converted buildings. The area has an urban vibe and a pedestrian-friendly environment. As the heart of Watertown, downtown is filled with restaurants and shopping options. The area is also home to several parks like Watertown Square, which has great views of the Charles River.

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.
