  • (Made) the Purchase … As Seen by the Deed Dated 23Rd of March, 1649: "Witness These Presense That I, Ousamequin (A.K.A
    III. Community Setting A. Regional Context Bridgewater (2000 population, 25,185) is a suburban-rural town 23 miles south of Boston, eight miles south of Brockton, and 29 miles northeast of Providence. It houses Bridgewater State College, the flagship of the Massachusetts State College System with almost 10,000 full time students and 700 staff, and the Bridgewater Correctional Complex with over 2000 inmates and 1300 staff. Bridgewater is abutted by West Bridgewater and East Bridgewater to the north, Raynham to the west, Halifax to the east, and Middleboro to the south. A major feature is the Taunton River and its main tributaries, the Town and Matfield Rivers. The Taunton River begins at the junction of the Town River and the Matfield River northeast of the town center. The resulting Taunton River essentially wraps around Bridgewater forming its eastern and southern boundaries. The town has a strong town center served by a commuter rail station about 3000 feet to the east within the Bridgewater State College campus, a variety of neighborhoods and commercial/industrial areas and some scattered remaining farm land. It also has regional highway access via the limited access Route 24 running north-south through western portion of the town and the nearby outer-circumferential Route 495 These roads give good highway access to Boston, Brockton, Providence, and the rest of the region, while the restored rail service connects the town to Middleboro/Lakeville to the south and to Quincy/Boston/Cambridge and the entire MBTA transit system to the north. Such accessibility, combined with the town’s other attractions gives Bridgewater broad appeal as a place to live and partially drives its continued growth.
