Lakeville, Massachusetts is located
Southeastern Massachusetts, bordered by Middleborough on the north and east,
Freetown and Rochester on the south, and Berkley and Taunton on the west.
Lakeville is about 38 miles south of Boston and 206 miles from New York City. Principal highways are State Routes 18, 105, 79, and 140, which runs N-S
between Taunton and New Bedford. Interstate Route 495 is easily accessible
in the neighboring town of Middleborough. Commuter rail service to South Station, Boston, will be available in
1996-97 on the Middleborough Line.

| The Town of Lakeville is an inland rural town on the Plymouth-Bristol
county boundary. First settlement of the town was in approximately 1702
when a forge was erected to use the bog iron in Assawompset and Long Ponds.
The town was basically agricultural since it lacked the major water
resources to attract early industrialists. In the 19th century, however,
its limited water power allowed development of a tack and nail factory, a
tannery, and some small shoe making companies. Later in the century,
neighboring communities drew off a significant percentage of the Lakeville
water supply and cut off the cottage and recreational potential of lakeside
properties.
With the shriveling of industry, the town has remained essentially as it
began, a pleasant rural community still showing significant agricultural
character but with some suburban development pressures visible. Residents
are very proud of the community's continuing beauty, and enjoy using the
Long Pond recreational area which offers traditional summer sports as well
as ice skating, ice boarding and ice fishing. The woodlands surrounding
the town's lakes provide hiking and picnicking opportunities while three
golf courses, indoor tennis facilities and a racquet and fitness club
provide for the athletic interests of residents. |
