Watertown is located in Middlesex County

Population: 34,000 Watertown Massachusetts, is within twenty minutes travel to all major highways in eastern Massachusetts. In addition, it is serviced by rail lines and commuter bus lines, and has easy access to Logan International Airport in Boston.

Over the years this community has played an important role in Massachusetts history, once serving as the temporary seat of government during the Revolutionary War. It was here that Paul Revere, who once resided in Watertown, printed the first paper money for the Province of Massachusetts. At the Old Bemis Mills located here canvas sails were woven for the U.S.S. Constitution. Manufacturing industries included that of the renowned Stanley Steamers as well as the old black Crawford Stoves. And just around the bend of Mt. Auburn Street outside Watertown Square the Mugar family opened what was to be the first of many stores in the famous Star Market chain.

Today Watertown is rich in ethnic diversity and culture, boasts a high level of citizen involvement and many amenities such as shopping malls, swimming pools, country and tennis clubs, skating rinks, eleven fine parks and public transportation providing easy access to Boston and surrounding communities.
