Danvers Square offers local shops and restaurants, while the Liberty Tree Mall anchors a larger retail area.
Danvers Public Schools serves the town with five elementary schools, Holten-Richmond Middle School, and Danvers High School, and the regional Essex North Shore Agricultural and Technical School is also in town.
