Boston Globes Top 12 Towns in MA (also on Chronicle Channel 5 March 12)
Winchester has been once again in one of the top 12 towns to live in here in Mass. The town has so much to offer folks moving in from the Boston area or relocating. Winchester is a quaint little town just 8 miles north of Boston. The town seemed to be "found" because of its close proximity to Boston, access to the Commuter Rail and its high caliber schools. The town offers a tradtional New England feel with its charming down town center with brick sidewalks and lanterns. Take a video tour of Winchester
