How do you feel about your zip code? Do you have zip code pride? I do! I love the town (and coordinating zip code) that my family is lucky enough to live in. I honestly have lived in some towns over my years of living that were definitely not my favorite but the town I live in now is my personal paradise. I love walking into the coffee shop, getting a great affordable cup of coffee, and saying hello to 2 or 3 locals I’ve gotten to know over the years. My town didn’t crack Massachusetts Top 20 Best Zip Codes to Live In much less the Top 5! *sigh*
Niche provides our data today. They rank the best (and worst) zip codes in every state. I’ll link to their site where you can find all the nitty gritty info below.
To determine each zip code’s “Overall Niche Score” they graded 6 categories: Public Schools, Housing, Nightlife, How Good it is for Families, Diversity, and the Job Market in each zip.
So are you feeling nervous? Do you think your zip code made the Top 5 in Massachusetts? If you’re not in the Top 5, don’t worry about it! My town didn’t even make the Top 20 and I’m actually wearing a hoodie with my town’s zip code printed on the front as I type this article right now. If you found a home you love, who cares how it ranks or whatever anyone else thinks. You found your happy place and we cheers that!
But I did promise the Top 5 Best Zip Codes to Live In in Massachusetts so here they come! Just remember, don’t kill the messenger. I’ll link to USA Today’s full report after the Top 5.
And speaking of BEST’s, THIS Massachusetts restaurant was just named best budget-friendly restaurant in the state! Saving money can be yummy!
