Why Foxborough, Massachusetts Is a Great Place to Call Home

When people hear the name Foxborough (often spelled Foxboro), they immediately think of Gillette Stadium and the New England Patriots. But while Foxborough is nationally recognized as the home of one of the most famous sports franchises in the country, the town itself offers so much more. Situated between Boston and Providence, Foxborough is a dynamic community that blends suburban comfort, rich history, and world-class entertainment with a strong sense of hometown pride. For families, professionals, and retirees alike, Foxborough offers an enviable lifestyle with something for everyone.


📍 Prime Location and Accessibility

Foxborough’s location is one of its greatest assets, giving residents easy access to both city life and suburban tranquility.

  • Highway Connections: Foxborough sits right where I-95 and I-495 intersect, making commuting and regional travel straightforward. Boston is about 30 minutes away, and Providence is under 25 minutes.
  • Commuter Rail Access: While not as central as Mansfield’s station, Foxborough has its own MBTA Commuter Rail stop with service to Boston via the Franklin line, particularly on weekdays and during special events. Residents can also take advantage of nearby Mansfield and Sharon stations for more frequent service.
  • Proximity to Airports: Both Logan International and T.F. Green airports are accessible in under an hour, convenient for business and leisure travel.
