About Metro West

MetroWest is a cluster of cities and towns lying west of Boston and east of Worcester, in the US state of Massachusetts. The name was coined in the 1980s by a local newspaper.

While regional definitions vary, the MetroWest Economic Research Center at Framingham State College defines MetroWest as the nine towns of:
Ashland
Framingham
Holliston
Hopkinton
Natick
Sherborn
Southborough
Sudbury
and Wayland
representing a total population of approximately 184,000. With the exception of Southborough, in Worcester County, the towns of MetroWest are part of Middlesex County.

The 495/MetroWest Corridor Partnership calls the region the "Arc of Innovation" because it is home to many of Massachusetts' largest and fastest growing companies. In addition to the nine towns mentioned above, 23 other municipalities are included in the 495/MetroWest Corridor as defined by the 495/MetroWest Corridor Partnership:
Acton
Bellingham
Berlin
Bolton
Boxborough
Foxborough
Franklin
Harvard
Hopedale
Hopkinton
Hudson
Littleton
Marlborough
Maynard
Medfield
Medway
Milford
Millis
Norfolk
Northborough
Shrewsbury
Stow
Westborough
Wrentham

Comment by Mike Anmuth on November 9, 2010 at 5:45pm: Hi all,

Some of the other neighborhood groups are having meetings, so would anyone be interested in a Metro West one, maybe in Newton, or Natick? If there's interest, I'd volunteer to be the point person, but I wanted to first see if anyone would be up for it.

Thanks,
Mike
