Canton, Massachusetts is a primarily residential community. The town enjoys a prime location with easy and direct access to the state's major highways including Routes 128, I-95 and 24, and is served by major commuter and passenger rail. Canton has a rich and varied industrial heritage, serving as the location of Paul Revere's copper rolling mills in post-Colonial times, and as the site of rubber, chemical and woolen manufacturing in more recent days.
Present commercial and industrial enterprises play a key role in Canton's fiscal stability and are considered a major asset of the community. The prime commercial area is well located so as to allow direct highway access without affecting the community's small town charm. Canton provides a high level of municipal services to its residents, including an excellent library, school system and recreation programs.
Many of the lakes, ponds and wetlands in Canton have been protected and preserved for present enjoyment and future generations. Among the protected areas are the Eleanor Cabot Bradley Reservation, an 82 acre estate that blends open fields, woodlands and gardens in the shadow of Great Blue Hill, and Pequitside Farm, a town-owned 38 acre conservation and recreation area which offers hiking, picnicking and cross country skiing.

Massachusetts: The Past, Present & Future of Our Country
"Why Massachusetts?"
Why not? Located in the heart of New England, Massachusetts is the region's most popular state. Rich with the history of our country and still on the cutting edge of technology, Massachusetts offers a perfect blend of the past, present and future.
From the stunning seacoast, Cape Cod, the islands and Boston to the peaceful beauty of the Berkshires and the Blue Hills, Massachusetts offers something to everyone! Every year, new residents are drawn to Massachusetts for the diversity of culture and activities available in Boston, the picturesque seaside communities, and the quaint rural towns for which New England is known.
With New Hampshire and Vermont on the northern border, New York to the west, and Connecticut and Rhode Island bordering on the south, Massachusetts is the most centrally located of the New England States. Cape Cod juts out into the Atlantic Ocean on the east like a bent arm, creating an easily recognizable state shape. A day trip to one of Massachusetts' beautiful beaches or islands is easily accessible from any part of the state, as is a trip to the Berkshires in the western part of the state.
For all of these reasons and more, it's easy to see why people are so proud to say they live in Massachusetts!
