Newton, known as the Garden City, is located six
miles west of Boston. It lies within the
so-called Boston Basin, a tiny structure of the
Appalachian Mountain Range. Originally a part of
Cambridge, Newton was settled in 1630 and
incorporated in 1688 with the first settlement
in Newton Corner.
Newton is a vibrant
community that is desirable as a place to live
and work due to its proximity to Boston,
nearness to various highway and public
transportation systems, attractive neighborhoods
and high property values, well-run municipal
government, and a strong, nationally-recognized
school system. Newton has well maintained parks,
bicycle and fitness trails, golf courses, a
public pool and lake. |
