GREAT FOR RENTERS 4 rating By Anonymous ( Feb 24, 2019) My husband and I have lived in Framingham since 2017, its a perfect place for young couples or a small family with young kids. It offers a variety of rental apartments and condos. Rent is fairly okay though increasing at a high rate. If you love shopping then this would be a per ...Read More fect place, from groceries, homes and furniture to personal wear shopping all offered on the same street. Natick mall, Shoppers World, BJs, Home goods, Target, Lowe and so much more. If you love eating outside Yesssss this place will get you sorted in a just a drive of a mile or so. They have a variety of restaurants that covers a diversity of cultures; from Chinese food to Brazilian food, Sea food lovers, Mexican, Italian, american food, and so much more all you have to do is ask Siri your nearest favorite food. Night life in Framingham is fairly okay but not night clubs, movie cinemas and bars are open till midnight which is great for those who love late night dates. The town is pretty safe, i have not heard of any crazy crimes in the neighborhood.

If you are driving into Boston downtown, you can get there in about minutes with less traffic since its close to the Masspike toll road. During rush hours in the morning for those who commute to work into Boston city the traffic can be really crazy both on the main roads and the back roads so you have to calculate your time wisely.

Otherwise we enjoy living in this place and if you are looking at moving to Framingham MA am sure you wont get bored. Read Less

Education is Better than Reported 4 rating By Bestplacesearcher ( Oct 08, 2017) I see that Framingham was given an F for education.

Framingham, MA - A Romantic Town 4 rating By Anonymous ( Aug 05, 2010) My wife and I traveled to Framingham, MA for our youngest daughters wedding. Her husband is a native to the area and we have enjoyed visiting our son-in-law and daughter there often. They don't have much to do for the younger kids and couples, but my wife and I enjoyed our trip t ...Read More here greatly.

The biggest draw to the town of Framingham is the New England Wild Flower Society Garden in the Woods. If you are a gardener like my wife, or have any interest in planting, gardening, and nature while enjoying a peaceful atmosphere, then this is in my humble opinion the best botanical garden in the US. They offer interesting and informative tours where you can learn a lot, but my wife and I enjoyed walking through at our own pace the second time we visited.

Every time we visit we Framingham make sure to see the Wild Flower Society Garden because it is a paradise in the woods no matter what the season.

The only big name other attraction in Framingham is the Danforth Museum of art, which has lovely art and sculptures. They mainly showcase American art from the 18 and 1900's and is a great walk through. It is a lovely display of American history told through it's art and is a fine collection. Read Less
