Situated just over eight miles southeast of Worcester sits the charming small town that is Grafton. The town itself displays all the idyllic characteristics of a classic New England setting: vibrant streetscapes, historic buildings in the Colonial style, and a gorgeous town center. Residents enjoy proximity to highly-rated schools, wildlife sanctuaries and parks, and a modest yet diverse selection of locally owned restaurants and shops. You can find incredible single-family home rentals in Grafton, and more affordable apartments as well.
Grafton residents enjoy both the intimacy of small-town living, but with a population of just over 20,000 the town is far from stifling. With nearby Worcester making for an easy getaway, and Boston only an hour’s drive away, you can enjoy the character and charm of New England while never being too far away from the conveniences of the city.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
