Belchertown MA Community Profile & History
Belchertown, Massachusetts lies adjacent to the Quabbin Reservoir, one of the largest man-made reservoirs in the country. Although Belchertown is considered a "semi-rural" community with scenic landscape, it has experienced unprecedented residential development. Up until the time of the Civil War, an active carriage trade thrived in town. Summer residents discovered Belchertown in the early 1900's, establishing a few large summer hotels. Today there are few farms left.
The center of Belchertown is highlighted by an expansive and beautiful town common. Small businesses are located around the common near an emerging municipal and economic development area at the site of the former Belchertown State School. Housing today consists primarily of single family homes, though a considerable number of apartments have been constructed since the 1980's. Most of the newer residents commute to work in nearby urban centers.
