It really depends on whether you like the quaintness of Wrentham or you'd like something a little busier, with more emenities. You don't have to be a Franklin resident to send your child to the charter school there. There's also a charter school in Foxborough, too.
Of course Franklin is closer to the job in Hopkinton and the prices of houses might be a little bit less and more to choose from. Wrentham will never end up with the kind of growth that Franklin has had because they don't want it.
