Settled in 1718 and incorporated in 1735, Grafton, Massachusetts combines deep historical roots with contemporary living. This Worcester County town, located 40 miles west of Boston and 5 miles southeast of Worcester, is part of the historic Blackstone River Valley National Heritage Corridor—America's earliest industrialized region. The town center features a classic New England common surrounded by preserved colonial-era buildings, while distinct areas like North Grafton, South Grafton, and former mill villages each maintain their own character.
Grafton's North Grafton MBTA station on the Framingham/Worcester Line provides direct access to Boston and Worcester. The town features six public schools and is home to Tufts University's Cummings School of Veterinary Medicine. Nature enthusiasts can explore Hassanamesitt Woods, offering miles of hiking trails and protected conservation land. With average one-bedroom apartment rents around $1,394—notably lower than the Massachusetts state average of $2,512—Grafton presents an opportunity to experience New England living with convenient access to major cities.
