Hey all, I'm considering Everett as a place to buy my first home (35 single male) and I'm wondering what might be some good neighborhoods or areas to consider.

It's important to me that I'm within walking distance to a some of options for restaurants/bars/activities. It doesn't have to be extremely bustling, but I like to have options close by. There is also a good chance that the place I would purchase would not have a driveway, so it's important for the street parking situation to be manageable, and to be able to use my car any time without worrying about the hassle of finding a spot when I return.

I like to have a sense of community in the area if possible, but I know that's difficult to find in cities in this country so it's not a dealbreaker.

I'm very enticed if there is public transportation and/or bike paths nearby which provide easy access to other communities or part of the Boston area.

If anyone could recommend any neighborhoods or areas to consider, it would be much appreciated!
