From ranch-style homes to Colonial Revivals

"It is more affordable than surrounding areas," Williams says. "It's attractive for people who want to be near the city but have a suburban lifestyle." South Randolph's median home price is about $580,000, while the Boston Metro Area's median single-family price is about $950,000.Conservation land within walking distance and nearby parks

Visitors can paddleboard, kayak and canoe on the water, as well as fish or hike along the shore. Less than 5 miles north, wooden walkways meander through Bertha Soule Memorial Park's forest and past Norroway Pond, while pups play at Randolph Dog Park. Blue Hills Reservation is about 10 miles north and features a 36-hole golf course, a ski area, multi-use trails and Ponkapoag Pond, where visitors can fish, hike and camp.Students zoned for Randolph Public Schools

South Main Street is the primary north-south thoroughfare leading throughout Randolph, while Center Street runs east-west. The town is bordered by Massachusetts state Route 24 and U.S. Interstate 93, while Massachusetts state Route 28 intersects the community. I-93 leads about 15 miles to Boston and Boston Logan International Airport. Just north of the neighborhood, the Holbrook/Randolph commuter rail also leads to the state capital.

You can get into the city using the interstate, commuter rail or back roads."Local bites in the neighborhood, commercial corridor just north

Nearby Avon Best Pizza & Grill is a go-to for takeout, while Monkey Lounge is popular when the sun sets, serving Asian fusion food and trendy cocktails under colorful lights. Just north of the neighborhood, in the Randolph Plaza shopping center, there’s a Shaw’s grocery store. Nearby Main Street is the area’s primary commercial corridor, lined with shops, restaurants and other businesses, including auto services, florists and pho spots. Plus, Williams notes that the neighborhood is located near other commercial areas. "It's easy to get to other attractions," she says. "It's not that bad to get on the highway to get to shopping. The Braintree Mall is close, and there's an Ikea and BJ's nearby."

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
