Sudbury
Sudbury is at the heart of the MetroWest area, halfway between
Boston and Worcester, encircled by Interstate Routes 95 (128)
and I-495, and dissected by U.S. Route 20 (the Boston Post
Road), and Interstate 90 (the Mass Turnpike). The commute
to Boston from here is an easy one, as is connecting to any
one of the hundreds of businesses located within its renowned
"technology belt of America."
Although
urban business and entertainment areas are easily accessible,
the area retains a relaxed rural and agricultural flavor.
Rich in colonial history, many landmarks still stand. Due
west, an equal distance as to Boston, is Worcester, the third
largest city in the state, and home to even more colleges,
museums and businesses.
More
than 10,000 acres of Sudbury still belong to forests, crops
and pastures. Reminders of the town's earlier farming days
are evident in the old barns, wells, stone walls, pastures,
and roads which follows the lay of the land, not a designer's
plan. Most homes here sit on large lots, making gardening
a popular warm-weather pastime.
Public
recreation facilities and conservation land are distributed
over more than 100 acres, including facilities for swimming,
ice skating, shuffleboard, exercise tracks, cross country
skiing, fishing, boating, tennis courts, bridle trails, soft
ball, baseball, football, and soccer fields (memberships to
private golf, swim and tennis clubs are also available).
