Long ago, Jamaica Plain was founded by Boston Puritans who wanted to find additional farm land. For years, this land was primarily an agricultural community. It was originally a part of Roxbury until it seceded in 1851. Later, it was annexed as a part of Boston in 1874. While it may have started as just farm land, the town quickly began to grow in the 19th century. During this time, it became one of the country's first streetcar suburbs.
Today, it retains the distinction of housing many of Boston's Emerald Necklace Parks. Designed by Frederick Law Olmsted, these parks provide the neighborhood with ample, beautiful green spaces.
Students in Jamaica Plains are a part of Boston Public Schools. In addition to public schools, residents can also attend private schools like SHOWA or the British School of Boston.
