Are You Living in Your Dream Town?

Play with the Globe's new "Dreamtown" page.

By Chris Helms

We wind up living where we do for thousands of reasons. Maybe it's where generations of your family have lived. Maybe your job took you to your present address. Or maybe getting a good school district for the kids was the big draw.

Wherever you live, the Boston Globe has an interesting new interactive data project to play with. Manipulate five sliders on what's most important to you. The Globe will show you the perfect Massachusetts town or city for you.

Visit the Globe's Dreamtown page to figure out if you're living in your dream town.
