Arlington provides residents with that perfect mix of urban/suburban living that so many people are in search of these days. It has a great school system, many parks, and natural resources, and offers easy access to Boston via the Red Line, Route 2, and Interstates 93 and 95. From the vibrant arts and cultural scene to the hip and walkable restaurants and shops, it’s no wonder that Arlington is a sought-after Greater Boston community and a great place to live.
​​​​​​​

Ranked by Boston.com as one of the best places to live, Arlington offers a blend of urban and suburban living within its borders. The area in and around Arlington center, with theaters, shops, and restaurants, is attractive and happening, though not after about 9:30 at night. The Alewife Brook Reservation and Minuteman Bikeway lie partly in town. Somerville’s Davis Square is a short distance to the southeast, while bucolic settings like Concord are a quick drive up Route 2.
