Reply to comment by [deleted] in Does anyone commute from Providence to Boston each day by train? We are seriously considering purchasing a home but we work at Mass General Hospital. Looking for people with experience to either talk us into it or talk us out of it. by [deleted]
OP, just fyi like Providence, Pawtucket (aka the Bucket as the residents call it) still has a fair amount of stigma from some wealthier residents when it comes to the public schools. This is an urban district. If that's something you aren't interested in and you are planning on having kids, then you will be adding 35k+ per kid per year. Those home savings will quickly vanish when compared to public schools in SE Mass.
Also, like another commenter said,some costs will shoot up like insurance rates, so add all those in.
