'''Ball Square''' is a neighborhood primarily in [[Somerville, Massachusetts]], United States, but also extending into [[Medford, Massachusetts|Medford]], at the intersection of Boston Avenue and Broadway, located between [[Powder House Square]] and [[Magoun Square]]. It is primarily a residential area with a handful of shops and restaurants along Broadway.  Located on the edge of the neighborhood surrounding [[Tufts University]], Ball Square contains a mix of businesses serving the student and academic populations as well as those reflecting the more blue-collar neighborhoods to the east.

[[Ball Square station]] on the [[MBTA Green Line]] is located adjacent to the square.
