I have lived in Harvard Square for the past 4 years and absolutely love it. We are close to downtown, yet far enough away to feel like i still live in a residential area. The culture in Harvard Square is awesome, it is diverse, safe, and surrounded by academically minded individuals. There is always much to do, from festivals, museums, and different ethnic food to eat.
