Tatham. A west-side pocket of West Springfield, this neighborhood leans into everyday ease: quiet side streets, well-kept homes, and the Westfield River close enough for breezy evening walks. Its location puts you within minutes of the cultural and employment hub of Springfield, while staying firmly rooted in the community spirit that defines this part of Hampden County.
Families appreciate the walk-to-school convenience of Tatham Elementary, part of the West Springfield Public Schools, and the steady pipeline of youth sports and enrichment opportunities nearby. Daily routines often include time at Mittineague Park’s trails, playgrounds, and fields, cared for by West Springfield Parks & Recreation. For story time, study sessions, or a quiet nook to work, the West Springfield Public Library offers modern services in a welcoming space.
Weekend plans come easily. Riverdale Street’s shopping and dining corridor covers errands in one sweep, and major regional events at the Eastern States Exposition—home of The Big E—are just a short drive away. Commuters benefit from straightforward access to I-91 and the Mass Pike, plus local routes served by the PVTA.
Whether you’re moving across town or arriving from afar, Tatham offers a practical, well-rounded base with a strong sense of place. If you’re considering buying or selling here, Agent Pronto can connect you with a top local real estate professional to help you make the most of your next move.
