Default Buy in Wareham, MA

We found a nice summer house to buy in Wareham, Ma. Beaches seem nice and plenty of places for boating. In researching the area we found the crime rate to be quite high. Is this the reason for the lower house prices in this beach community? Are there good and bad areas in Wareham? We are looking for a nice place for a family.
Any help would be appreciated.

If you wish a summer home look over the bridge, water is warmer,
Yarmouth is ok and maybe Dennis which has a great beach.

Wareham is viewed as a very depressed community by people living in the area and on the Cape -- and yes, that is why the prices are low -- the school system does not have a good reputation either. Wareham has many mobile home parks, lots of transients and "welfare" motels which is very sad, but it is what it is and it's in Wareham.... You need to actually go over the bridge to get a good deal and near beaches.... Falmouth is a great town, but prices are definitley higher....
