North Waltham
What it’s like to live in North Waltham
Suburban convenience defines North Waltham, where rental options provide significantly more space than Boston proper while maintaining reasonable commuting possibilities. The district surrounds multiple conservation areas creating unexpected natural beauty within this urban setting, while the nearby Route 128 technology corridor provides employment opportunities without requiring downtown Boston commutes. Though requiring vehicle ownership for most daily needs, excellent commuter rail service creates car-optional commuting possibilities to both Boston employment and Cambridge innovation centers – advantages increasingly valued as fuel costs and parking expenses continue affecting overall housing affordability calculations. The neighborhood's excellent school reputation attracts families seeking quality education without premium pricing, while the strategic positioning provides reasonable access to both urban amenities and suburban convenience without excessive commutes in either direction.
