Neighbors look out for each other in Clifton Heights
The Clifton Heights neighborhood provides a supportive, community-centric atmosphere in Brockton, the City of Champions, about 26 miles south of downtown Boston. “Brockton is an older city, and people give a lot of attention and pride to their specific neighborhood,” says Jose E. Perez, a team leader and broker at JEP Realty with around 20 years of experience in the city. “There’s a strong sense of community throughout Brockton, but it’s especially true in the Clifton Heights area.” Neighbors are often out in their front yards or porches, while children play and dogwalkers stroll throughout residential streets. Convenience is another draw, as the area rests within a few blocks of independently owned restaurants, stores and recreational spaces.

Clifton Heights’ low inventory has increased market competition. “You get more value for the home in Clifton Heights compared to Boston,” says Charles Lima, a Keller Williams Realtor with over 30 years of experience selling in the area. Lima and Perez agree that these higher values make the neighborhood popular among first-time homebuyers and those who want to avoid Boston prices. “If you get something under $500,000 for a single-family, things move very quickly if it’s in good condition,” Perez says.
