Welcome to Reading, Ma! Reading is known as a great place to live - just ask anyone who lives here! Noted for its award-winning schools and outstanding Town services, Reading is a community of excellence. Reading has a safe, small-town feel with welcoming neighborhoods where people know and care for each other, and the Town offers its residents many recreational and cultural opportunities, both within the community and as part of the greater Boston region. Reading is located just 12 miles from the center of Boston with its many world renowned cultural, recreational, and educational opportunities. The center of Boston is just a short 25 minute train ride from Reading's downtown MBTA commuter rail station, and Boston’s Logan International Airport is less than 15 miles away. Reading is home to a thriving downtown filled with shops (Goodhearts and Aine’s Boutique to name a few), services (J Michael’s Salon)and restaurants, such as Bunratty’s Irish Pub, Biltmore on Main and Christopher’s. Reading is also home to a large tract of conservation land known as The Reading Town Forest, which has an extensive trail system, many of which are fairly flat roads. These trails are suitable for biking and walking and can be enjoyed all year long. Many Reading residents bring their 4 legged friends for off leash frolicking too! Jordan’s Furniture and Imax Theater are additional attractions within the Reading city limits. Call us to give you a personal tour of Reading!
