Only 15 minutes from the center of Boston, the Glenwood neighborhood provides city living at a lower cost. Many of the residential properties were built in the 1920s and '30s, which have since intertwined with newer structures built from 1970 up until present day. Today Glenwood is one of Medford’s most diverse neighborhoods and known as being one of the best places for college students to reside. The safe neighborhood also provides a friendly place for families and young professionals. The excess of rental homes make it easier for young students to find housing within their budgets, while families find the older characteristics of the neighborhood and houses appealing.

Tufts University is 10 minutes away, Harvard University is 18 minutes away, and Massachusetts Institute of Technology is 20 minutes way. Nearby Medford Square and Meadow Glen offer diverse eateries, cozy cafes, and cute shops. Excellent for commuters who work in Boston, there are two transit stations nearby and the drive into the city is only 30 minutes long.
