Incorporated in 1754, Lincoln is a historically significant and character rich New England town. Today, this upscale, flourishing community with heritage in agriculture, land preservation and the roots of the American Revolution prides itself on not only preserving the past but also on looking toward the future. It’s known as “The Lincoln Way.”

Located 12 miles northwest of Boston, Lincoln, with its population of over 5,500, is just minutes from Routes 2 and 128/95. In addition, the Fitchburg Line of the MBTA’s Commuter Rail at Lincoln Station provides convenient public transportation to Boston and points west.

Ranked among the highest in home sales values in Massachusetts, Lincoln is made up of 14.5 square miles of prime residential and commercial properties and planned open spaces. Minuteman National Historic Park, which Lincoln shares with neighboring towns Concord and Lexington offers 750 acres of conservation lands and historic sites upon which the colonial militia and Minutemen took up arms in defense of their property and their freedom. At Minuteman Park, as well as at Lincoln’s many other conservation trails and at nearby Walden Pond State Reservation, an abundance of recreational opportunities, including hiking, fishing, swimming and more, await you.
