Framingham

Framingham is more developed than neighboring towns like Wayland and Sudbury and includes a wide range of neighborhoods built over many decades. Many neighborhoods were developed during the suburban expansion of the 1950s through the 1970s, although newer subdivisions and infill construction have continued into the present day. Framingham also includes several historic areas near the town center where homes date back to the 1800s. Because of the town’s size, neighborhoods vary widely in character, price points, and home styles. Many areas are close to shopping, dining, commuter rail stations, and major commuting routes such as Route 9, Route 30, and the Massachusetts Turnpike.
