1900s homes with convenient sidewalks
A single street in Revere holds a variety of home styles. Future homeowners can find American foursquares, shotgun duplexes, and Queen Anne homes. “Most homes were built in the 1900s, but some were built around 1994 and 1996,” Elbadaoui says. A recently renovated single-family home with three bedrooms can sell for over $500,000. Future residents looking for an investment opportunity in this beach neighborhood might purchase a multi-family home with six bedrooms for over $1 million. Many locals park on the street, but some homes have driveways that provide uncovered parking for a few cars. Paved sidewalks line the streets, making it easy for residents to bike or walk to nearby amenities or the beach.

Robotics, art and dance at Revere High
When kids are old enough for school, parents send them to Garfield Elementary School. Students later move on to Garfield Middle School. Revere High School hosts an annual student showcase for kids to show off their skills. Visitors might see the robotics club in action, a young artist’s masterpiece or a performance from the dance team. All three of these Revere schools earn a C-plus grade from Niche. “The public schools are very good, but some parents apply for charter schools in the nearby areas,” Elbadaoui says.Boston Logan International Airport waits nearby for travelers

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.
