Another interesting thing about Framingham, despite not being a huge town, is that there is a relatively high proportion of people living here who are young, single, and upwardly-mobile professionals.

In addition to being popular with young singles, Framingham is also home to many people who can be described as "urban sophisticates." While both of these categories describe educated professionals, urban sophisticates are quite a different demographic. Urban sophisticates are people who are both educated and wealthy, and thus tend to be older, richer, and more established than young professionals. "Urban sophisticates" is not just about being educated and well-off financially: it is a point of view and state of mind, one that you might call 'urbaneness.' But such people can and do regularly live in small towns, suburbs and rural areas, as well as in big cities. They read, support the arts and high-end shops, and love travel.

Framingham has quite a few people who use public transportation to get to work each day, primarily riding the train.
