It's difficult to say where that is from where we are right now though.

I work steps from bedford. As far as a commute goes, traffic is very bad coming from the northwest. You'll go against the worst traffic if you live south down 95/128. Or, you can live close to boston in somerville or cambridge and zip out Rt. 2 at high speeds even in rush hr. West of 128/95 out rt 2 should also be good but gets increasingly rural. And then there is out Rt. 3 towards nashua which has its traffic days but many people do it. But if you're commuting this direction, anything around the "North Shore" will be bad.

We look forward to seeing you at any of the many mini events!
