Moving to Beverly
Though a Google search will tell you that the United States Navy was started in Philadelphia, the same question asked around a Boston suburb will have many telling you the Navy’s real birthplace was in the small town of Beverly, MA. In September 1775, George Washington ordered a military schooner warship known as the Hannah be sent from Beverly Harbor to harass British supply vessels, leading many to feel this was the first American naval attack.
Whether the city is the original home of the Navy or not, one thing it does have going for it is that it’s a great place to live. With the Beverly population around 42,000, it is a fairly small town with some interesting history, great local neighborhoods, and fun activities nearby.

Many Beverly neighborhoods are known by the train station they are next to such as Prides Crossing and Montserrat. On the east side of town, adjacent to Manchester-by-the-Sea, you can find the comfortable community of Beverly Farms. While another great neighborhood to live in is the Fish Flake Hill Historic District right across the river from the city of Salem.
If you’re looking for fun things to do in Beverly, one of your first stops, once you’re in town, should be to catch a concert or movie showing at the 1920s-style theater known as The Cabot. And whenever you are in the mood for some outdoor fun, Lynch Park plays host to outdoor concerts, family picnic areas, and a beautiful, relaxing rose garden. Another great local gem is Independence Park which has a children’s playground, gorgeous beach views, and even a small food stand to grab a snack.
Since it covers a fairly small area, there are only a handful of schools in the Beverly School District. Elementary school options include Cove Elementary, Hannah Elementary, and Centerville Elementary. Briscoe Middle School is the only public junior high and freshmen through seniors in the area attend Beverly High, the main local high school.
When it comes to jobs in Beverly, the healthcare system is the largest employer with its numerous medical positions at NE Hospital Systems such as Beverly Hospital. A close second amongst local employers is a company known as Axcelis, a large company recognized for its work on semiconductor manufacturing.
