Not sure which town has the most diversity in terms of (residents)---but the town would most likely be located inside the 128 loop. Cambridge is supposed to be known for its diversity---so I'd imagine that it's likely to be one of the most diverse.

Diversity makes life interesting. Singapore, for example, is very diverse, especially in terms of religion. There you find Hindus next to Christians, across the street from Chinese who worship the Buddha, and their ancestors etc. That's why that country has a large number of religious holidays and most of its residents join in the celebrations of each others traditions. Imagine a Christmas buffet with a United Nations of neighbors, or Passover when you explain to your guests why this night is different from all others. As I said, diversity makes life interesting, and sameness can be suffocating.

Diversity is important to some people. I can understand why some people don't get it though. If you're White in America, then you're in the majority. If you're White, imagine if you have to move to Hong Kong for a job transfer (say you're in business). I'm sure you'd try to seek out some American ex-pats too!
Many people think only White-Black, so it depends what type of ethnicities you prefer to be around. There's a large Brazilian population in Framingham. There are many Hispanics in Lawrence. There are many Jews in South Newton, Coolidge Corner, and Brookline Village. There are many Asians between Washington Square and the Longwood and Fenway area. Cambridge is generally considered the top multi-ethnic diverse area though.

Cambridge & Amherst for smaller city/town. Maybe Fitchburg, Holyoke. Burlington has East Indians now.
Boston & Springfield metro for big city.

To answer from the opposite perspective...Franklin County has the least diversity.
