They're similar in the sense of location (both obviously in Massachusetts) and they're both considered to be excellent schools. Since I have no idea what you want out of a college, check out those sites for yourself, in addition to www.collegeboard.com =)
If you're not from around here, Massachusetts (and actually all of New England) is known as an exceptional area for colleges, so you'll definitely find something for you. Good luck!
