I would like know if it is easy for kids to find friend in a town like
Westwood. That is something I need to consider.

c********t 发帖数: 4527 | 2 Westwood is hot on the list of Chinese families.
A lot of people moving in, so should not be a problem finding Chinese play
mates or good families to hang out for yourself.
As far as for White families, it is ok, not particular bad or good for
Chinese. |
|
c********t 发帖数: 4527 | 3 that's a plus for people who want to move in or upgrade.
Westwood tax is not cheap, but really house pricing stays very stable.I am
disappointed by it. |
|
c********t 发帖数: 4527 | 4 another contrary example is Dover, very low tax, but price drops a lot.
what's going on with Westwood, did not drop at all. |

博士说的是。 Dover的区虽好,交通太不方便,特别是对正常上班的双职工来说。
westwood的交通方
便,房子在60-90w内要比dover/sherbon贵些。 |
|
b*******0 发帖数: 1695 | 6 How come Sharon's people discuss home improvement and DIY?
Westwood's people are more education oriented.
Interesting. |

l******n 发帖数: 347 | 8 try to talk to 60 bayley street, westwood, ma
you can buy his house, do a rent to buy, or just rent by months? |
|
c********t 发帖数: 4527 | 9 Westwood is best for shopping and commute.
you can find all major stores within 2-3 miles (this is really the best, I
can not find any other upscale towns is more convenient).
KiMAM market (Chinese Grocery) is only 15 minutes-drive away.

z****l 发帖数: 5282 | 10 I would agree price at 金门 is quite OK for people living in a mansion in
Westwood.
I visited 金门 a few times then stopped going there.
in the winter, I would go to Natick Mall, Burlington Mall or Solomon Pond
Mall, definitely no no for Legal Place. |

S***x 发帖数: 2012 | 12 I work at Waltham and LP works at Woonsucket RI. We think about to buy a
house at Westwood. I know it has good schools, two train stations, bigger
lots. But any issues I should knwo about it? |
|
c********t 发帖数: 4527 | 13 the westwood is the best choice.
Driving to Waltham is only 15 minutes from 128, traffic time could be a
hassle though.
Driving to Woonsucket RI, is 128 all the way, actually from around Canton
Street, it is very easy to get to south 128.
Rent our house or buy it? |

town? |

S***x 发帖数: 2012 | 18 谢谢你的信息。我们也已经做了很多功课,所以对附近几个区也有些了解。考虑到所有
因素,Westwood相对是最好的选择,尤其是1号路,128和95交界那块。 |
|
b*p 发帖数: 2208 | 19 去RI的话,westwood在downey学校那里还是很方便的,从canton street很容易上去,那一
段的95也不堵. 在sharon比较好的房子都在靠里面,要绕到95上也要花好长时间.
去waltham,在rush hour还是比较痛苦,半个小时是肯定要的,如果能错开点时间,就要好
很多.
最近在那一片地方卖房子的有几家,不知道你budget如何.认识的一家人好象正在准备,
也有意思要卖.....呵呵 |

c********6 发帖数: 658 | 25 Blue Ribbon School的高中没啥含量的,Blue Ribbon School是衡量学校差生近2年的
提高情况的,拿到Blue Ribbon School说明此校差生提高得很快而已。westwood近几年
学区升的比较快,就高中来讲好还是比newton south差的。高中主要是看有多牛娃进了牛
大学的。个人看法而已 |
|
M*******a 发帖数: 205 | 26 Blue Ribon School 有两种,一种是差生提高快的,一种是一贯稳定表现的 Examplar
School,Westwood 高中的这个是 Examplar,这些信息网上都有。我左右的邻居去年都
进了 Ivy League,牛娃真的不少。 |
|
B*****3 发帖数: 168 | 27 谢谢各位回复。 比较sharon和westwood, 我很看重的是去城里上班 方便, 所以对步
行到火车站的房子很感兴趣。有一个房子到车站只隔一家, 不知噪音大不大?你们有
没有这方便的经验?Isington 车站只有commuter rail, 没有AMTRAK,估计比128站要
好很多。我明天去听一听。 |
|
m****s 发帖数: 1945 | 28 we missed Westwood years ago.
LD wanted only Deerfield and Hanlon.
We tried lowballing a few split entries and couldn't get one.
We heard the train noise on a street next to Islington
then we skipped the Donney due to less decent school rating and traffic/
noise. |

c********6 发帖数: 658 | 35 newton学区以前挺好的,现在是个大杂烩了。
老牌好学区:weston, wellesley, dover-sherborn, wayland, lexington, linclon,
concord-cralies, acton-boxborough, harard...
南边好学区:sharon,westwood, medfield |
|
S***x 发帖数: 2012 | 36 其实我觉得这些学区都已经差不多了,关键是要考虑上班交通是否方便。我们在
Westwood买房,是因为我要在Waltham上班,老婆要到RI上班。 |
|
c********t 发帖数: 4527 | 37 no, it is for Chinese culture,
very high quality.
Go Chinese Culture
Go Westwood |
|
M*******a 发帖数: 205 | 38 这个房子比较适合买方预算有限的人,如果要在 Westwood 买完全理想的房子,预算要
在一个 million 左右。 |
|
x****m 发帖数: 1084 | 39 想问一下 westwood的优点, 学区好, 但是好像进城不是很方便, 而且中国人不算多
吧 |
|
D******D 发帖数: 180 | 40 你可以和138 Carroll Ave比较一下,当时2011看的房子,全新的flip house,开价61
,2万,卖了一年都没有卖出去,没要的主要原因就是太吵 ,还有边上有条小溪,
wetland的问题。走路去火车站也不方便,要绕个圈子,大陆上没有斑马线。 小学是
westwood里头最差的一个。周围邻居开餐馆的,做fliphouse的,有的很有钱,但都不
是文化人。你这个房子我觉得还不如138号的呢。 |
|
B*****3 发帖数: 168 | 41 非常感谢你的建议, 目前已经不能和2011市场相比了。 好象离火车站近的房子很难找
到这种现代一点的。一个1500sf 的很破的cape 也要50多万。 我们非常喜欢westwood
的交通方便。 |
|
|
v****d 发帖数: 15 | 43 这是在westwood. 好区。价格很合理,甚至有些低。上市3天pending, 一点不奇怪。 |
|
a****0 发帖数: 236 | 44 下周就要搬去westwood了,需要自己买heating oil,今天找了一家询价,说是要4刀/g
,那怎么用的起啊。。。
有人有团购什么的吗?或者推荐一下便宜的公司?谢谢谢谢。 |
|
c********t 发帖数: 4527 | 45 $2200 a month.
a bit expansive for an apartment.
It is in westwood, though |
|
h*****1 发帖数: 21 | 46 3br in Westwood, price is ok la. I thought it
Could be higher.:-) |
|
M*******a 发帖数: 205 | 47 请推荐个剪女式短发的地,老美开的也行,最好近点儿, Westwood, Norwood, Dedham
附近。 |
|
S********e 发帖数: 552 | 48 westwood,needham, 学区好, 此外可以看 Medfield, Sharon. |
|
a*******r 发帖数: 107 | 49 非常感谢!LD在WELLESLEY上班,所以不想买太南太西,Medfield, Sharon感觉有点远
。westwood,needham非常喜欢,但对我们的BUDGET有点贵。所以有点想买WALPOLE.
另外有人上过那里的next generation children's center吗?
对学区一窍不通。查了几个WALPOLE的小学,也有10分的,请问美国小学时按片上哪个
小学,还是只要自己TOWN里的自己挑喜欢的上。 |
|
a*******r 发帖数: 107 | 50 谢谢!请问有没有什么网站查某个地址上哪个小学,中学什么的,还有什么网站查学校
排名什么的。WALPOLE实在不太了解,不想westwood, needham版上经常有人推荐。 |
