The Suburban Lifestyle has a lot to offer, particularly to families. Life in the suburbs generally is much more community-based and schools tend to be better than their urban counterparts. Activities tend to be family and school oriented and most important, crime rate in most suburbs is lower than in urban areas.

An important element when considering to purchase a home in the suburbs is the type of public transportation available. A number of suburbs close to the city are connected via the MBTA subway system, which offers quick access to downtown. Other suburbs offer access via commuter rail or bus.
