Am very compassionate about caring for anyone that needs assistance with their health needs
I have lived there for just over 10 months and it was absolutely amazing, the people are warm and welcoming the transportation especially the commuter rails were very close to me and the supermarkets my only issue were parking for visitors overall it's very quiet which I loved.
I feel like Somerville is age friendly in that Massachusetts has great healthcare and transportation, but it snows and neighbors generally dont talk to eachother.
Just to be a companion not a caregiver. I am really good with people. My husband passed away and was in a nursing home and I related to the elderly
Somerville is a vibrant and diverse community with a strong sense of place. The people here are friendly and welcoming, and there's always something to do whether it be a simple stroll, attending a food festival or joining a workshop to learn about sewing. The neighborhood is also very safe because there are many school in the area making it walkable at all times of the day or night.
