Positive Growth in Abington 5 rating By Anonymous ( May 23, 2018) Abington is a close-knit community of nice friendly people. We are not that far from Boston which makes it easy for my commute to work. We value education as we just built another middle and high school over 5 years ago to cater to the positive growth of the community. The best t ...Read More hing about Abington is that it is a diverse community that continues to grow.

Living in Abington has other perks especially the family-oriented activities that keep the kids busy. Island Grove is a perfect park with a lot of activities for kids and dogs. I don't live that far from the park so I either walk or bike which helps me get my exercise. There are lots of scenic views, places to sit and relax by the water, nice swingsets and more. This is definitely one of my favorite spots in the summer.

The neighborhoods are well-kempt and most backyards are very big. The cost of living is reasonable and everyone seems to take pride in living here. Read Less
