Review of North Attleborough Massachuse,


North Attleboro is Like a Pricier Attleboro, eww.
Star Rating - 12/11/2018
I've lived in North Attleboro for 6 years. Born in PA, raised in "regular" Attleboro, moved to North after college. North Attleboro has a pretty downtown. The restaurants are tasty but high priced. The yoga studios are only low priced if you compare them to Dedham's. House prices are excruciatingly high for the tax rates. There's quite a few tear downs in town, and even they are hard to come by for under $200-300K. North Attleboro is much closer to Providence than it is to Boston. A Boston commute, like the one I'd made the past four years, takes over an hour during rush hour, whether you go by car or train. And it's really pricey to commute into Boston every day. Exhausting, expensive, and you'd be better off living somewhere less expensive with a better jobs outlook. There are barely any professional industries in Boston, so every job is a 25+ minute commute. I'm probably going to move out of town in 2019.

I’m 38 years old and I have been a life long resident of North Attleboro MA. I rarely comment on these type of things but I just want to say that I completely disagree that North Attleboro is basically the same as Attleboro, just more pricey. They are right next to each other, but they are so different that it’s like two different worlds. Attleboro has a much higher crime rate, unemployment rate, the schools in Attleboro don’t even compare in every way to the ones in North, Attleboro has a lot of homeless people, and North Attleboro is a much more cleaner town, which I think the community takes pride in. However, it is more expensive. I lived in Attleboro for a couple years, when I was younger and there’s a couple benefits. If you’re commuting, Attleboro has a train station and they have recently cleaned it up, with a nice bike path and green grass. So I’m not against Attleboro in any way, but I wanted to say this in case anyone is trying to determine if they want to move here etc. I hope that I could help anyone looking for information.
