    "This area lacks decent public transportation. Having a car is extremely helpful. The is the bus system but it isn’t that reliable and it doesn’t have lots of stops and routes so one has to walk a distance to get to path of bus"

    "The bus goes by only once an hour each way. A car is helpful. Summer traffic make the commute slow so allow for extra time."

    "Very friendly upscale area with beautiful scenery. Great for a summer vacation. Very peaceful. Can get quiet at times so if you’re looking for excitement you may want to look elsewhere. "

    "Great area for kids to grow up or spend the summers in. Very friendly community feel. Safe to walk around in. "
  • Ashleighmaeb
    "An hour and a half drive back to Boston if your lucky. You can fly which is way more convenient but driving is the cheapest. It’s our summer home so we don’t care that much since we’re down all summer."
  • Hudson
    "I’ve lived in this neighborhood for over 3 years and love it. The neighbors are nice and there are lots of kids and young families."

    "Ostervile, lovely place apart from the people. Rude arrogant, dont you know who I am? types where the rules of civilty only apply to others. If you are in the top 1% or aspire to be you'll love it."
