How is the nightlife in Waltham?

I'm a teacher here and Median household income is $116,560, which feels pretty solid for the area. It's a a smaller city city with about 64,723 people. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look. The parks and outdoor areas are a huge plus. Thanks in advance! Cost of living is definitely rising, but still manageable.

I've lived in Springfield for about 2 years now, so I can give you a pretty detailed perspective.

it's been a really good experience overall. When I first moved here from LA, I was surprised by traffic. It took some adjustment but now I wouldn't trade it.

A few things worth knowing:
- Lots of new development happening
- Diverse dining options
- The pet-friendliness scene is average

The downsides:
- Can feel isolated
- Dating scene is rough

Overall I'd rate it 6/10 for families. Hope this helps!.

From a safety perspective, it really depends on the area. Some neighborhoods are excellent, others not so much. Do your research on specific streets.
