Maynard

Maynard is a small town in Middlesex County, located about 25 miles west of Boston along the Assabet River. The town developed as a mill town in the 19th century around the Assabet Mills complex, which has since been transformed into a mixed-use development that serves as the town's cultural and economic center. Today, Maynard is known for its compact, walkable downtown and its transition from industrial roots to a community that blends residential neighborhoods with small businesses and light industry.
