    "Wakefield has all of the conveniences of a larger town or small city, without the drawbacks. Excellent restaurants, movie theater, even a great local theater company. Public transportation is great, and the bike path makes getting around for kids and adults a breeze. And did I mention the beach? It's less than a mile away from my house, and it's beautiful. If I want to go into a city, Providence in 30 minutes, Boston is just over an hour, and Amtrak can take me to New York from Kingston Station. "
