About 5 minute drive is the commuter rail in reading, yes it is generally a very quiet safe town, the east side near the town center is the quieter side. Any and almost all issue that involve the police are on the rt28 corridor, usually out of town drunk drivers or domestic stuff in the condos and appts. I think there has been 2 murders in the last 100 years, not sure if that says anything. Less than 10 minutes is the Winchester Hospital clinic. They have an emergency room but are not open late and on sundays. Otherwise you can got to the Winchester hospital in Winchester which is about 15 or less minutes away.
Not many people know about it, it used to have to reputation of as the town where all the surrounding "rich" towns (Reading, Middleton, Lynnfield, Andover, North Andover) kids would move to so they could afford a house.
It has a very woodsy country feel to it, when people come visit they are like you live in the woods! Even though it is 15 minutes or so drive to Burlington, MA or 25 to downtown boston.

Is there any public transportation? How about hospitals.... where do you go?
Seems to be close to Andover and Reading to link to the MBTA. It is also close to North Shore communities that are very nice like Middleton and Lynnfield. Thanks for any info. I don't have children so the school system is not important.
