QUALITY OF LIFE
West Boylston enjoys a beautiful natural setting with many recreational activities and protected open space. It is a desirable place to live and work.
Our residents cherish their historic roots, family-oriented neighborhoods, and small businesses. We are proud of our excellent, high-ranking schools, from which 90% of graduates go on to college. An effective public safety department leads to a low crime rate. Other town services include recreational programs, a fine library, senior citizen services and well-maintained roads.
The Town's desire to offer an excellent quality of life for its residents is reflected in programs such as the West Boylston Healthy Living Program, which incorporates both residents and Town employees and includes a focus on physical activity, health education and healthy choices.
Each month, information on a health topic is posted on the Town website and announced on the public access cable channel. Public programs or seminars on the subject are also noted on the website and cable channel.
