I think walking to the train from most of those places year round is ambitious. Walking down to north main means you have to walk up. Hence the 1 bus. I’m not saying it’s impossible but I know very few people who actually do that on foot (maybe e bike tho?). I mean I agree with the post of choices but think the idea of walking from mt hope in bad weather or winter is……. Not ideal.

Incorrectly referring to city limits and getting corrected is not about being pedantic. Esp when advising someone about where to live. City limits aren’t up for debate.

I know some folks on east side and Pawtucket drive to Attleboro so going downtown isn’t nec the best option. Keep that in mind.

Tons of people make that commute from all over PVd. Find a house you like and then adjust from there. You can take the 1 for example if on the east side to Kennedy plaza and walk over. Where in Boston is your job and which station are you getting off at? Downtown could mean lots of things. Also regular biz hours? Every day? Any WFH days? All these things come into play.

With kids? And a dog? Not in one of those overpriced towers I hope? I think with a family living right by the train wouldn’t be first choice. Having said that train is superior to 2-4 hours in a car every day!

Seven stars doesn’t do pies I don’t think? They do some things very well but their croissants are way too crunchy. Should be softer in the middle.

Ah ok that makes more sense 😂. I suppose it’s a pipe dream that they’ll fix the awful state offices / 146 clusterf*ck in the process.

Ok didn’t they just rebuild the viaduct ten years ago? Or am I confusing that with another massive highway project Circa 2010-2012? When they had to redo half of it because someone’s math was wrong?

Duckpin! The lanes on elm wood (rebranded as bowlero are also good for regular bowling).

I think driving to ct and then having to park and then take the train is a PITA - just take the train from pvd.

Fwiw our xmas tree farm warned us this year there’s going to be a shortage bc of drought conditions etc so if you even want a live tree get it before thanksgiving bc they’ll have run out by December.

Yeah no their prices are in line with virtually every vet we’ve ever been to. That vet was definitely a unicorn situation from what I’ve heard!

Comparable in Attleboro maybe but to take a chunk out of travel time the rent goes up much higher! Like orders of magnitude higher.
