City - Cambridge

Nestled along the Charles River, Cambridge is home to both Harvard University and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, two world-class universities that are located just two miles from one another. This one-of-a-kind college town stands as a historical, cultural, and education hub for the state of Massachusetts. Cambridge offers a charming atmosphere and unbeatable proximity to big-city living with its central location in the Boston metro area, located just three miles west of Downtown Boston.

Nicknamed the “City of Squares” for its intersecting commercial districts, Cambridge offers residents direct access to urban amenities. Kendall Square can be compared to Silicon Valley due to its continuously growing concentration of start-ups. Central Square is your go-to for international restaurants, and Inman Square is a top pick for shopping, cafes, and nightlife. Art is alive and well in Cambridge, between street murals and sculptures and art galleries dotting the city streets.
