Medford apartments are ideal for anyone who wants (or needs) to be close to Boston proper but feels more at home surrounded by nature—the sprawling Middlesex Fells Reservation sits on the north side of town, giving residents a massive playground with over 100 miles of trails through hills and forests. The reservation is extremely popular for hiking, mountain biking, horseback riding, rock climbing, and even cross-country skiing.
The presence of the prestigious Tufts University on the south side of town contributes to a strong academic community in Medford, and several museums and historical landmarks add to the city’s appeal for folks who appreciate a mentally stimulating environment. MBTA bus service and I-93 make it easy to get around and enjoy the resources and attractions of Boston at your leisure.

School data provided by
GreatSchools
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.
