Medford Real Estate
The city of Medford lies northwest of Boston. Originally settled in 1630, it was first a part of Charlestown. In 1892 Medford was incorporated as a city and became quite an industrial center. It was home to the manufacturing of brick, tile, rum, crackers and clipper ships.
Today Medford is an ideal option for those wanting to live in close proximity to Boston, but wish to have more space just outside of town. Home to Tufts University, Medford offers great housing opportunities across the board. More urban locations like Station Landing and Medford Square boast apartments and condos that benefit from being located among shops, restaurants and public transportation. Head over to West Medford where land becomes more abundant and you will find single family homes with yards, driveways and sometimes garages.
