Purple Loosestrife along Sudbury River in Concord
Lots of history for a young country.

Concord is the next town over from me. I drive through it every day on my way to work and often go there on the weekends to go walking.
Concord is probably the most historic of the towns in Massachusetts outside of Boston.
It is renown for its part in the Revolutionary war, its anti-establishment politics of Thoreau, and its contribution to America's literature. It is also a pleasant town to visit, with many great out of the way places to visit and enjoy all of the seasons.

Pros and Cons
  • Pros:Lots of history and easy to find quiet places
  • Cons:Traffic can be a problem on the main streets at rush hour
  • In a nutshell:A must see town if you are interested in American History.

    Your community is beautiful. Just finished my own Concord page after a quick visit last week. Loved the cemetery!
