Welcome to malden

Malden, Massachusetts is located five miles northwest of Boston and is serviced by the commuter rail and the MBTA Orange Line. Boasting a history over three centuries old, it started as a small settlement called Mystic Side and has emerged to the energetic city it is today. Malden is at the heart of an innovative New England economy with an active business community, a downtown in the process of rejuvenation, a fine system of parks and playgrounds and a variety of social, cultural and fraternal organization. To loyal town residents, Malden has the best of both worlds; ready availability to the best of the big city and the familiar feel of a small town.
