There are a lot to choose from. We lived in North Attleboro which was nice, good family town, close to lots of shopping, etc. But that is south of Boston and you work on the north side. I've also lived in Littleton, MA which is a nice, quiet town but not too far to drive to Lexington. Anything around Littleton, MA to Concord, MA are good family towns NW of Boston. Boxboro, etc. Honestly, the best way I think would be to make a sort of vacation to the area, and instead of visiting the city, go visit all of these towns in the area to get a feel for them. But basically, the closer you get to Boston, the busier the city. Towns Like Littleton, MA and further west are really quiet and sleepy, smaller than some of the quiet midwest towns. The advantage though is that you are in close proximity to everything the bigger cities have to offer
