If working in Raynham, where would you live? (Boston, Brockton: public schools, place to live)

[bill7coo]

I need to relocate to Raynham for my work and seeking for good place to live. Actually my company's 3rd party relocation vendor will give corporate housing options to me, if I provide several candidate cities. They mentioned that they do not have options in Raynham. So I want to search where can be best area for my family.

1. I need good schools for my daughter. I have 2 children and first needs to attend 2nd grade.
2. Safety for my family.
3. I can commute by car or train (if any)

Relocation vendor asked me about Brockton and Boston.
I also want to know whether Quincy could be good option. (Commuting and School)

I would consider Easton.

Agree, Easton and Mansfield would be the closest towns if you are concerned about safety and good schools. You do NOT want Brockton.

Lakeville too. Lakeville has commuter rail to Boston, good schools, great safety, great recreation (as the name implies, it's set around some lovely lakes), and it's right next to Raynham. Routes 495, 44, and 140 are all easy ways to get from Lakeville to Raynham (less than 15 minutes from most of Lakeville to most of Raynham).

I would avoid Brockton if public schools are an issue.
