Who We Are

About Us

A grassroots chapter dedicated to making Somerville financially strong and people-first.

About Strong Towns Somerville

Strong Towns Somerville is a volunteer-run local chapter of the national Strong Towns movement. We bring the movement’s core ideas — financial resilience, incremental growth, human-scale development — to bear on the real decisions being made in Somerville, Massachusetts.

Our Principles

We believe Somerville’s best future is one built incrementally, transparently, and for the people who live here. That means advocating for walkable streets, missing middle housing, and city budgets that invest wisely.
