Physically the most distinguishing feature of Princeton is Mt. Wachusett, the highest mountain in Massachusetts east of the Connecticut River. From Princeton, residents look down on Boston, fifty miles away. The town is a small community which desires, at least on the part of many of its residents, to resist any urbanization and to maintain its rural character as much as possible. It is commonly said that new residents, once they have settled down, feel that Princeton should shut the town gates and restrict its population.
