    "Holidays In Halifax before Christmas Fireworks every Fourth of July Big youth weekend long Softball Tournament (Halifax Summer Smash)"
  • Licishort5
    "The commute to work is easy enough if you work on the south shore. I work in Braintree and that takes a bit longer, like an hour, and it can take up to 2 hours to get into Boston with morning traffic."
  • Eliciamkelley
    "There are good parts and not so great parts. The more residential private streets are usually very safe! There are newer playgrounds, places to walk, restaurants, grocery stores and a Walmart! Highways, shopping malls and the cape are pretty much 30 minutes away from center of town."
  • James B.
    "A lot of town and school events that bring the community together as well as awesome 4th of July, Halloween and Christmas celebrations."
  • Pauladec75
    "I just moved here, I really don't know much about the area except it's extremely far to any highway and it's not somewhere to live if you don't have a car and need public transportation. It will definitely take a lot of getting used to, coming from the city!! "
  • Ana
    "Great area , close to everything"
