All those are fine towns and you should be able to find something there for 650k. If you want to go. But cheaper Check out Lynn. If you want so spend more but get easy access to the water try swampscott

Hell of a commute out of Swampscott for Winchester.

Yeah, my advice is to stay close to 95 / 93. Local traffic in those areas -- Saugus, Swampscott, Lynn, Salem -- is absolutely horrible. I lived in Salem for 2 years, very close to the Swampscott line, and getting to & from 95 was miserable. Beautiful town though!

Agree! Maybe live in Peabody. Easy access to a lot of major roads if transportation is a big factor

Definitely the commute is something to keep in mind, I personally have never attempted the commute from anywhere north of Boston so I really appreciate the tip!
