CNN Money Magazine ranks Newton, MA as number four on its 'Top 100 Best Places to Live' list.
This week the Boston Globe, Boston Herald, and other local media outlets covered CNN Money Magazine’s annual list of ‘Top 100 Best Places to Live’ in the United States, ranking Newton, Massachusetts, home of the Mustangs, number four. Newton is one of four Massachusetts locations to make the list this year, in addition to Brookline (#31), Framingham (#38), and Weymouth (#87). The annual list, which compares small cities across the country, acknowledges Newton for the safety of its city and its widespread educational offerings.
Many students from across the country choose Mount Ida College for our professionally focused academic programs, strong liberal arts education and great location. Our 72-acre campus with a traditional New England setting and brand new state-of-the-art athletic turf field facility with lights is just eight miles from downtown Boston, giving students the best of suburban and city life.
