Thanks. That seems like the best we can do! Fingers crossed.

Or you can look it up because I’m not going to reference the dozens of lenders that do the study. It’s honestly what you should have done before commenting.
Again, What is the background that you have to make such claim?
I’ll start with mine, Realtor-investor-contractor..

When I lived in Brighton, I went to Brigham and Women's at Newton Corner and had a good experience there.

Seconding this, but take route 127 to get here, starts in Beverly and follows the water through 4 towns. Lovely drive.

I want to like HV / Atrius but have had such atrocious service. Every time I go in, the wrong test is ordered, or they submit the order with my name misspelled, or they forget to schedule a follow-up appointment, or they give me the wrong paperwork… I can’t trust them for any of the little things and that makes it hard to trust them for the big things

Firefly is an online healthcare platform, their providers are based in Waltham. Partner and I both use the service, it’s great. You get assigned a healthcare team and you can manage referrals in the app

That’s not about having access to multiple (corporations) fiber drops. It’s about having access (at all).
Also if you’re going to put supposed studies and quotes then provide a link.

Second this. CHA has great primary care and does an excellent job of integrating care with specialties. I like the family health location in north Cambridge past porter sq but have had good experiences with other CHA locations, too.

Good points, all around.
And with a front-loading cargo bike, like the Yuba Supercargo CL ... they could even forgo a car entirely for most of their trips. :)

Extremely important note due to their job being in Kendall.
Kendall Sq is immediately next to Lechmere, where the Green Line Extension begins and where the Somerville Community Path extension begins too.
The Somerville Community Path directly connects to the Cambridge Linear Park/Path which connects to the Minute Man. And it connects to the Cambridge Crossing paths. A few painted bike lanes make it possible to get into Kendall fairly comfortably, and Cambridge is likely to add protected bike lanes around there in the future.

They're working in Kendall Sq tho, so it's worth noting the Somerville Community Path connection the Minute Man makes it totally possible that they could do a bike commute to Kendall during the warmer months and even year round if they're hardy enough.
Ebike/escoter could make for a solid alternative to driving to Alewife and parking and chancing the Red Line is a POS today, and probably similar time to driving. Don't usually have to pay to park a bike either.
Alewife also has bike cages, so they can even do a shorter bike + transit commute.

Hand sanitizer and a blender? Should’ve called me. I would’ve used a muffin 2-pack box (that nobody buys and leaves at the register).

Pretty much the only difference is that there's less manure on the road

Should've used one of their huge hot dogs. Would've been perfect as a snow shovel.

Not fiber though? I don’t think Comcast offers any fiber optics services, just coax cable. So they just want to install a new coax line?

Poor dog. I echo the sentiment, your best bet is to hand around the dog park.

Viral ant-man advertising? It kind of looks like an ant to me.

My experience says you'd be better off asking people at the dog park. Someone may know the dog.
Hell, the guy may just show up there over the next day or so.

Very true. They're all good walking paths, too.
I focused more on the parts that would take them back out of the urbanized areas, though, given they're coming from a rural area. :) Less car noise, more actual nature. :)
