I haven’t been super impressed with Attleboro, but you make good points here. I’ll take a second look.

It's one of those old small northeastern cities that was gutted when all the industry left, but it's definitely on the upswing recently. It has a really cute, relatively intact downtown with a ton of potential and a bunch of very recent development adjacent to the station. Capron Park and its little zoo is a really nice asset too. That said it's definitely way sleepier than Providence (but only a 20 minute train ride away). The bus system there is bad though.. GATRA makes RIPTA look like the Tokyo Metro
