Acton, MA Apartments for Rent

Situated 21 miles west-northwest of Boston, Acton combines rich history with contemporary living. This New England town, which earned recognition from Money Magazine as one of America's best small towns, features over 1,650 acres of conservation land, including the Acton Arboretum and extensive hiking trails. The average rent for a one-bedroom apartment is $2,218. The town is served by the Acton-Boxborough Regional High School, which has received the Blue Ribbon designation, and offers convenient transit via the MBTA Commuter Rail at South Acton station.

Acton's rental properties are spread across five village centers, each with distinct local amenities. West Acton serves as a commercial center along Route 111, while South Acton features historic architecture near the town's commuter rail station. Residents can enjoy outdoor recreation on the Bruce Freeman Rail Trail and Assabet River Rail Trail, which connect to neighboring areas. The town's location provides access to employment opportunities in Boston and along Route 2, while maintaining the appeal of a suburban setting.
