This is the flyover country of Cambridge. People just pass by the Highlands on Cambridge Ave or Route 3A, or they stop in for fast food or to go work. Most of the buildings in the center of this nabe are industrial warehouses or odd small businesses. The drab feeling one gets here likens to the scenery in “Punch Drunk Love” that sent Adam Sandler’s character way over the hill. Cambridge Highlands is a place to work, not much else, really.

There is a residential portion on the western edge of town. The small streets off of Blanchard Road feature small single-family homes that are maintained, charming and sweet—as the residents are, too. But the character of this place has everything to do with neighboring Belmont, which makes sense, being that Belmont is the kind of nabe that caters to families.
