The Neighborhood

Waltham, MA is a small city with a “Boston is close, but I’m not living in it” vibe. It’s got a solid mix of neighborhoods, a busy main stretch, and a steady flow of students and professionals thanks to nearby colleges and employers. The total population is 65,849 (2024 estimate), and the median age is 33.8, which puts it in that young-ish, working-adult lane without feeling like a pure college town.

Waltham sits right on the line between suburban and urban in how it feels on the ground. Its population density is 5,117.9 people per square mile (2020), which makes it Medium density on the scale we’ve been using (5,000–12,000/sq mi): compact enough for walkable pockets, but not “stacked like downtown.” For average individual income, the clean public-data match is per capita income, and Waltham’s is $58,449 (in 2024 dollars).
