    "I have lived in Salem for 25 years. It is a great town to live in. Salem has a small town feel, with big city potential. Salem is a great place to raise a family in. The school system in Salem is amazing!!! There is nothing bad to say about this small town. It is thirty minutes from Boston, forty minutes to the beach, an hour and a half to the mountains, an hour to the states largest lakes. Just perfect."
