Salem is best known around the world for the infamous 17th century witch trials, but the local history and culture are much more expansive than that (although spooky subject matter is a huge draw for tourism here, especially around Halloween). Historic buildings have been well-preserved all over town, giving the community a very distinctive environment; many of these buildings can be seen around Salem’s highly walkable downtown area.
The town keeps a packed roster of community events, from summer concerts on Salem Common to Restaurant Week in the spring to festivals celebrating poetry, art, music, film, and more. Boston is easily reachable from your Salem apartment by road or rail, with an MBTA station on the north side of town.

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.
