    "Many nearby parks / trails to walk your pup. Sidewalks are everywhere so you don't have to worry about walking in the street. One con is the size of yards. Unless you purchase an expensive home you are unlikely to have a decent space for your dog to use."
  • Alyson W.
    "West Newton offers a diverse shopping selection. There are numerous shops, many of which are small and owned by locals, where you can find just about anything you're looking for.

    "We love our neighborhood! Lots of families, a good mix of different types of people. I have kids in Franklin and we are pleased with our experience with this school. We love being walking distance to Gath Pool and the fireworks on the fourth. West Newton Square is great place to walk for a date night or a Saturday morning movie with the kids. It is a good blend of city and town feel, with a lot of intellectuals, academics, and just super interesting people for neighbors."
