Amherst is a town in the Pioneer Valley
of Western Massachusetts. Amherst is home to 34,874 residents as well as the
campuses of the University of Massachusetts, Amherst College, and Hampshire
College. A usually pleasant mix of students, academics, and retirees makes
it a quintessential New England college town.
Five Colleges Area
Amherst is at the center of a vibrant academic consortium comprising
UMass, Amherst College, Hampshire College, and two more colleges in
neighboring towns: Smith College in Northampton and Mount Holyoke College in
South Hadley. Because of this the area is frequently referred to as the
"Five Colleges Area."
