Sharon, Massachusetts has the appearance of a classic New England town, with its central Post Office Square marked by three tall white church spires and its tree-lined streets leafing green in summer and traced with delicate white lace in winter. But Sharon comes to life as a busy commuter town of professionals, academics, civil servants, and business people as well as local enterprises, restaurateurs, artists, and active participants in a network of civic organizations.
Residents live mostly in single-family houses ranging from relatively modest ranches to luxury properties. Many townsfolk have second- and third-generation family roots in Sharon, but the town is also notable for its diversity and openness to newcomers. An Interfaith Clergy Council and an "Affirming Diversity" group foster cooperative understanding among several varieties of Christian and Jewish congregations, an Islamic mosque, and a Unitarian church, as well as adherents of Eastern religions, and the group sponsors an annual Martin Luther King Day Celebration.
The Sharon School Department oversees a high school, middle school, regional vocational school, and three elementary schools, including an Alternative School at East Elementary, all of which are committed to excellence in educating students.
Lake Massapoag is known for its concerts, fireworks, fishing and good swimming on Memorial Beach. From the 1800s until the 1940s, Sharon was a summer resort, drawing visitors to its many inns and hotels, where they would enjoy the clean air and the Lake.
Sharon proudly holds the 2,250-acre Massachusetts Audubon Moose Hill Wildlife Sanctuary. The Community Center, a former resort hotel that the town acquired in 1967, offers activities, such as dance, karate, language lessons, chorus, chess, sports club, theater, community television, and a beach for swimming and fishing, for all ages. The Recreation Department and citizens’ groups sponsor a tots’ playground and several athletic leagues as well as community events like Square Jam, Fourth of July, Family Week, and First Night.
An active network of civic organizations, shared appreciation of the diversity of its population and a cherished history make Sharon a vibrant community.

Massachusetts: The Past, Present & Future of Our Country
"Why Massachusetts?"
Why not? Located in the heart of New England, Massachusetts is the region's most popular state. Rich with the history of our country and still on the cutting edge of technology, Massachusetts offers a perfect blend of the past, present and future.
From the stunning seacoast, Cape Cod, the islands and Boston to the peaceful beauty of the Berkshires and the Blue Hills, Massachusetts offers something to everyone! Every year, new residents are drawn to Massachusetts for the diversity of culture and activities available in Boston, the picturesque seaside communities, and the quaint rural towns for which New England is known.
With New Hampshire and Vermont on the northern border, New York to the west, and Connecticut and Rhode Island bordering on the south, Massachusetts is the most centrally located of the New England States. Cape Cod juts out into the Atlantic Ocean on the east like a bent arm, creating an easily recognizable state shape. A day trip to one of Massachusetts' beautiful beaches or islands is easily accessible from any part of the state, as is a trip to the Berkshires in the western part of the state.
For all of these reasons and more, it's easy to see why people are so proud to say they live in Massachusetts!
