Local driving

Getting around Somerville

Somerville is dense, walkable and well connected by the Red Line and the Green Line extension, but a lot of daily life still points outward: big-box stores, suburban jobs and weekend trips.

Street parking is by resident permit and spaces are scarce, which is why many Somerville residents rent a car when they need one instead of owning.
