Medford Overview
Medford, MA is located just a few miles to the northwest of Boston. In fact, Medford may just be the most popular of that metro's suburbs for those who want to be close to the city but enjoy a more suburban and even, in some places, rural lifestyle. That's because those living in Medford apartments and homes are often just blocks away from fantastic outdoor havens like Middlesex Fells Reservation. This city is also renowned for being home to the prestigious Tufts University and premier arts avenues like Chevalier Theatre.á
Why live in Medford, MA?
Medford apartments and homes are quite possibly the best places to live for those individuals who love the outdoors but also want to be close to city amenities for work and play. That's because, while downtown Medford, MA is less than five miles from downtown Boston (yes, really!), it's also mere minutes from some of the area's greatest outdoor spaces. Just a few blocks north of downtown Medford, MA is the incredible Middlesex Fells Reservation, a verifiable natural haven that features thousands of acres of hiking and biking trails, swimming lakes, and much more.á
