Canton MA Community Profile & History
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 the post-Colonial era, and as the site of rubber, chemical and woolen manufacturing in more recent years.
Present commercial and industrial enterprises play a key role in the town'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 close-knit rural charm. Canton provides a high level of municipal services to its residents, including an excellent library, school system and recreation programs.
Many of the town's lakes, ponds and wetlands 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. The town's gorgeous natural and man-made scenery, numerous town-sponsored spring and summer recreation programs, thriving business climate and convenient locale combine to make it a wonderful place to live, work and explore.
