Living in Seekonk, Massachusetts
Seekonk sits right on the Rhode Island line, immediately east of East Providence and Pawtucket and only about five miles from downtown Providence. It was incorporated in 1812 from the western half of Rehoboth, and an 1862 Supreme Court boundary ruling handed roughly two-thirds of the original town to Rhode Island. The Runnins River rises here and eventually traces part of the Massachusetts–Rhode Island border, and the town straddles the Ten Mile River and Narragansett Bay watersheds. Seekonk is known for the Route 6 retail corridor, the Seekonk Speedway — a third-mile asphalt oval that has run since 1946 — and the nearly 200-acre Caratunk Wildlife Refuge, an Audubon Society of Rhode Island preserve with about 3.5 miles of trails. Interstate 195 clips the south of town, and Routes 6, 44, 114A, and 152 connect it to Providence and, roughly 48 miles away, Boston. Whether you're buying or selling in Seekonk, I can guide you through the local market in English or Spanish.
