Known for our innovation, this forward-thinking region focuses on the future while treasuring the best of our New England past. The intersection of the oldest and newest, MetroWest Boston offers the best of both worlds, just a 20- to 40-minute drive from Boston or Worcester. With major arteries crisscrossing our region, you’re never far from what you like: recreation in all seasons, sophisticated amenities and services, upscale shopping and dining, a range of cultural attractions, and traditional New England town commons.
MetroWest played a pivotal role in the birth of a nation, and the stories of courage, ingenuity, and resilience from our towns are waiting to be discovered. As part of Massachusetts’ 250th Anniversary of the American Revolution, the MetroWest Boston Visitors Bureau is proud to present “Revolutionary Paths: 250 Stories That Ignited Change.”
From October 27, 2025, through July 4, 2026, we’ll be sharing a new story every day on our social media channels. Learn about hidden heroes, remarkable women, Black and Indigenous soldiers, local legends, and historic landmarks that shaped the fight for independence. These stories bring MetroWest’s revolutionary spirit to life, showing how our communities contributed to the struggle that changed history.
