Reply to comment by Unique-Public-8594 in I am looking for 3bd houses in an excellent (8+ rating) school district in Massachusetts, with good community/neighborhood. I work in Cambridge thus wanted to keep commuting distance under 1hr. Can you suggest few good towns and approx. house price. Thanks!!! by AloneManagement8650

Price range is definitely key, given the school district standards and under 1 hour commute -- cities and towns like Newton, Lexington, Belmont, and Concord are quite expensive.

I grew up in Waltham (the "working class" town abutting Newton, Lexington, etc.) and was able to get an excellent honors level education, but its system does deal with a larger percentage of children with various learning challenges. However, the adults who run the gifted and honors programs make sure to keep academically advanced kids engaged.
