Canton, Massachusetts is located in Eastern Massachusetts, bordered by Sharon and Stoughton on the south; Randolph and Milton on the east and northeast; Dedham, Westwood, and Norwood on the west; and Boston on the north. Canton is 11 miles northwest of Brockton and 17 miles south of Boston. Principal highways are Interstate Route 95 and State Routes 24 (the Fall River Expressway); 128, the inner belt around Boston; and 138. Commuter rail service to Back Bay Station and South Station, Boston from Canton Center (22-30 mins; 209 parking spaces) and Canton Junction (18-26 mins; 781 parking spaces). Amtrak's passenger service between Boston and New York City stops at the Route 128 Station in nearby Westwood. Conrail (contact: 617-783-6222) provides freight rail service in Canton.

The Town of Canton is a primarily residential community conveniently situated 18 miles southwest of Boston. The town enjoys a prime location with easy and direct access to the state's major highways including Routes 128, I-95 and 24, and is served by major commuter and passenger rail. The town has a rich and varied industrial heritage, serving as the location of Paul Revere's copper rolling mills in post-Colonial times, and as the site of rubber, chemical and woolen manufacturing in more recent days. Present commercial and industrial enterprises play a key role in the town's fiscal stability and are considered a major asset of the community. The prime commercial area is well located so as to allow direct highway access without affecting the community's small town charm. Canton provides a high level of municipal services to its residents, including an excellent library, school system and recreation programs. Many of the town's lakes, ponds and wetlands have been protected and preserved for present enjoyment and future generations. Among the protected areas are the Eleanor Cabot Bradley Reservation, an 82 acre estate that blends open fields, woodlands and gardens in the shadow of Great Blue Hill, and Pequitside Farm, a town-owned 38 acre conservation and recreation area which offers hiking, picnicking and cross country skiing. Residents feel that the natural beauty of these areas combined with the numerous town sponsored spring and summer recreation programs make a very special statement of what Canton is like.
