Good Facilities & Low Taxes
Seekonk is considered a good town to live in probably due to the excellent schools, public and fire safety, good library and importantly lower taxes than many of the towns. With the housing inventory down from 100 to 70 plus, it seems that the property market is going to pick up very soon.
If you are a property investor, this could be a gem in your portfolio. One tourist attraction worthy to be mention of will be the Seekonk Speedway which is found on US route 6 and is considered the oldest continually operated race track in USA operated by the Venditti family since 1946.
