Norwood is a suburban town about a half-hour south of Boston, blending residential calm with a lively Washington Street commercial corridor. Commuter-rail stations make downtown Boston an easy day trip. For nurses who want a quieter home base with solid access to the region's major hospital systems, Norwood offers a practical, small-town alternative to city living.
