Montclair, a sought-after Boston suburb
Montclair is as close to Boston as Quincy gets. This residential neighborhood hugs the south side of the Neponset River across from the Boston neighborhood of Dorchester. Residents enjoy access to outdoor amenities along the river and a plethora of diverse culinary options within walking distance. Commuters appreciate the neighborhood's plentiful access to public transportation options, including a train that takes them to Boston. "People are drawn to the convenience of Montclair because of the train stations and supermarkets," says Yong Tan, a Realtor with Central Real Estate who sells houses in the neighborhood. Homes are valued highly because of the proximity to Boston and the waterfront.
