We’re walking on sunshine (and lots more, apparently): Walk Score’s 2014 ratings put Somerville as the 7th most walkable city and the 9th most transit-friendly city in the nation. We don’t want to keep bragging, but analysis of the most re…cent Census data shows that 12.5% of Somerville residents walk to work, the 11th highest percentage in the U.S. Census data also shows that 30.4% of residents take transit to work, the 7th highest percentage in the U.S. For more on our Walk Score and infrastructure improvements that have made walking around Somerville easier: http://bit.ly/1aukZ2W

Our condolences to the Campo family on the loss of their dad, Robert Campo.

Many of us here in the Ville knew him as Bobby, who was a good man, a good father and a good friend who we will miss him dearly here in and around Somerville.

Robert was a former elected city tax assessors for the City of Somerville during the early 80’s during the Lester Ralph, Tom August and Gene Brune Administrations.

Robert Campo will be sadly missed.
