Middleton MA

As Middleton was tucked between two important 17^th Century towns—Salem and Andover—geography proved to be the determining factor for the town’s name.

Almost 400 years later and the addition of Boston as a new “anchor” town, Middleton’s name and location are still relevant. The town is only a 30-minute drive to the Hub. Over the years, as people flocked to this 14.4-square-mile suburban site, Middleton earned a reputation for being welcoming and is often characterized as a “small community in a single neighborhood.”

Back in the day, however, Middleton was a thriving farming community and still has many open fields and recreational areas including Middleton and Andover Meadow Ponds. By the 18^th Century, iron working was a prevalent industry but today, healthcare and educational opportunities are among a wide variety of industries driving new economic growth.
