Andover MA Community Profile & History
Andover, Massachusetts is located in Essex County, the most northerly county in the eastern part of Massachusetts. From the early days of the town, manufacturing was a major concern. The town's first powder mill was established in 1775; the manufacture of paper began in 1789; and in the early nineteenth century, woolen mills, a major New England industry of the era, were constructed. While many early businesses have since moved elsewhere, the town continues to attract major industry.
In recent decades, Andover has emerged as a highly affluent community with a strong economic base. Conveniently located near the intersection of two major highways, the town is well within commuting distance of Boston, and just a short drive away from the Massachusetts seashore and the White Mountains of New Hampshire. An accessible location and great potential for growth have attracted many professionals to the town over the years.
The community's real estate market has historically been strong and resistant to economic downturns. Municipal government remains commitment to stability and excellence in services along with maintenance of the highly regarded public school system. The town also offers top-quality private schooling opportunities at Phillips Academy and the Pike School. A thriving suburban community and an industrial leader in its own right, Andover offers an abundance of economic and cultural resources for professionals, families and businesses alike.
