Bedford Reviews
Rating 3.91 out of 5 148 reviews
Bedford is a family friendly town with good schools and even better athletic programs. Diversity and night life could use a little improving, but we are very happy living in this safe community!
I have personally liked my time here, but I do understand the complaints with lack of diversity and how people’s incomes can be harshly judged or have an influence on their status
I like how united the town of Bedford is. Whether it's for a high school basketball game or for someone's project, everyone is involved. Both the parents and the students take time out of their day to be apart of the community and I really admire that.
