    "Very quiet…. Miss a real downtown or city center feeling. Besides that, the area is safe and very nature oriented. It is close to the ocean and there are lots of walking areas."

    "The town takes excellent care of the streets and lighting. If you have a problem they are there the next day. It is a nice country town with ponds. My son actually fishes with his friend. Very close to Newburyport and shopping. Excellent restaurants in this area as well as next town Ipswich and Essex."

    "Did you know that Rowley was recently voted #5 of the top 12 spots to live by the Boston Globe Sunday Magazine? Excerpt: Rowley, population 5,500, is a farm community, a horse community, a true bedroom community. People get to know their neighbors."
