Tewksbury Attractions and Special Events

Conveniently located at the cross section of Interstates 93 and 495, the charming town of Tewksbury, Mass., is one of the fastest-growing communities in the state. Located about 35 minutes north of Boston, Tewksbury apartments for rent are the perfect housing option for residents who want to live in the safety and security of a small town but don't want to be too far from big city life. People are excited about living here, too. According to information from City-Data, Tewksbury has seen a 6 percent jump in population growth from 2000 to 2010.

Named after the British town of Tewkesbury, early 17th century settlers came into the area because of its close location to the Shawsheen River. The city became famous after President Andrew Jackson came to Tewksbury for a stop in the local tavern. Even though the city has seen its share of tragedies, including a devastating tornado that swept through the area in the mid-1800s, the city has always reinvented itself. Today, Tewksbury is a thriving community with a high median household income, according to City-Data. Based on information from the 2009, the city has a population of approximately 30,000 residents, and that number is expected to grow as more Massachusetts citizens find out about this charming New England town.

One of the city's most esteemed establishments is the Tewksbury Country Club. Complete with a beautifully designed golf course with tree-lined fairways and challenging holes, many golf enthusiasts will enjoy working on their swing in this fantastic community venue. With its own tavern, multi-purpose rooms, scenic patio and clubhouse, there are reasons to enjoy this club even if you aren't much of a golfer.
