In 1999, Somerville was pretty badly ravaged by Hurricane Floyd, which poured down nearly 14 inches of rain over three days and caused significant damage and severe flooding across the borough. But it's all good in Somerville now.
Of course, the people of Somerville didn't let a mere hurricane stop them from rebuilding what was lost and making the borough what it is today. Thankfully, most of the historic buildings in the downtown area were saved, many of which have now been turned into quaint boutique stores. There are 12,098 people living in Somerville, according to the 2010 census, spread between about 4,500 properties. The borough lies roughly 30 miles from Manhattan to the east, and a lot of the local people commute to the big city for work and play. View Somerville City Guide
