Try 30 minutes.

The COL still stands. The quality of home and school you get there compared to the same price around Boston is way better.

The Boston suburbs school districts are the best in the country you’re literally delusional

The CT towns /u/spedmunki specified all have school districts that could easily hang with those in the metro Boston area. It's not like CT is renowned for shitty schools or anything. I grew up in the Hartford area and went through a highly ranked school district (actually a rival of Glastonbury). The house prices there are literally 50% of what the same house would cost for me here in Wakefield. Property taxes are slightly higher, but not by much.

Mansfield is 50 minutes away. Basically everything on 495 is 45 minutes away. Keep justify living in western mass, it’s humorous. Anything besides long meadow and the valley is basically irrelevant.
