Top neighborhoods in Somerville

East Somerville
East Somerville
What it’s like to live in East Somerville
Cultural diversity energizes East Somerville, where international markets and restaurants along Broadway create global experiences minutes from downtown Boston. Residents enjoy the neighborhood's affordability compared to other areas so close to Boston, plus excellent public transportation connections via both bus and Orange Line access. Though Logan Airport flight paths occasionally create noise overhead, the vibrant community and authentic cultural opportunities compensate for the minor disruption. The area's continuing evolution balances preservation with new development, creating an eclectic atmosphere where family-owned businesses thrive alongside newer establishments reflecting Somerville's changing demographic mix.

Ward Two
Ward Two
What it’s like to live in Ward Two
Young professionals appreciate Ward Two's perfect positioning near both Tufts University and the developing Union Square district with its independent restaurants and creative businesses. The neighborhood's triple-deckers and modest apartment buildings offer architectural character at more accessible price points than nearby Cambridge or downtown Boston. Though some streets feature student concentrations with accompanying weekend noise, most blocks maintain quieter residential character suitable for working professionals requiring consistent sleep. The neighborhood's excellent public transportation includes multiple bus routes connecting to broader Boston destinations, while the developing Green Line extension promises improved connectivity in coming years. Winter parking during snow emergencies requires strategic planning, but many residents find Somerville's community character and relative affordability worth occasional logistical challenges.

What it’s like to live in Davis Square
Academic vibes pulse through this Tufts-adjacent area where the Somerville Theatre's midnight Rocky Horror screenings test noise ordinances. Renters enjoy quick access to the Davis Square T Station but note 85% of Victorian triple-deckers lack central AC despite sweltering July heat.
