    "I work about 4 miles West of my place but still in Framingham. Most traffic is inbound Eastward towards Boston so my commute is not at all bad. Local residents who work in Boston will drive to the train station, park their cars for the day and take the commuter rail (purple line) into town. It is 45-minute ride between Downtown Framingham and Back Bay Station so that is a good alternative to driving into the city. "

    "The parks here are great. There is an abundance of convenience with shoppers world and several other shopping centers. Plenty of restaurants to chose from with a wide range of variety. Schools are okay. Plenty of wonderful communities to be a part of in this town. Have enjoyed living here for several years. Downtown Framingham is cleaning up which is wonderful because for a while it was pretty rough. The now city is really turning over a leaf. Be sure to check out the many parks and available trails as there is plenty to do both indoors and outside. There are some good locations of Framingham and some kind of rough sections. The further from downtown you are the nicer the community is. There are plenty of neighborhoods with small or large yards. There is a farm in Framingham that I would highly recommend. It is close to Boston so the commute is easy. You can take back roads, the pike, route 9, or the commuter rail if you don’t want to drive. All are very convenient. It’s a perfect middle location from Worcester to the west and Boston to the east. "
