It's a very diverse neighborhood and quite welcoming. There are signs everywhere, cars stop for you to cross the streets, the main road has a speed limit, there are ramps for handicapped people.
In this neighborhood, there are three Senior living only buildings and the is also the town Senior Center. It is a very Senior friendly neighborhood for sure.
it is convient tohighways local shopping and is very accessible to neighboring New Hampshire for tax free shopping it is a quiet area even thiughh it has a large interchange of 2 major highways. And that makes it easy to access local beaches. Downtown Boston all with a simple drive. It's a mix of all ages. And has everything needed within close range. You can access 2 major highways easily to get to destinations. You may want to go.
My neighborhood has all ages everyone is welcome Many families started here and still here. The kids have grown up and parents still here. New families move in
Variety of ages live here and socialize together making this an age friendly community. The community provides social activities for all ages and encourages interaction.
It is very age friendly, comfortable and welcoming to a great cross section of young families, older couples and professional singles and couples. It really is a true neighborhood, everyone knowing every one else at least by sight, and having block parties and other events to make everyone feel included.
We're age friendly so many activities geared to the younger generation. Activities such as races block parties baby carriage races
It's age friendly with a senior center and a lot of events they have year round for everyone. The only problem is dome buildings are not handicap accesssble because of how old they are.
It's is a busy neighborhood with lots going on. My neighbors are nice people. I can be as friendly as I want to be but nobody bothers me. I really like living here.
