Originally established in 1667, Swansea is a picturesque town brimming with historic charm along the Cole and Lee rivers. Swansea blends suburban amenities with a rural feel, touting numerous national retailers in Swansea Mall along with scenic stretches of agricultural land.
Part of Swansea’s charm is its small-town atmosphere, which is fostered by an array of annual events and strong support of local schools and businesses. The Swansea community also enjoys ample opportunities for outdoor recreation at Swansea Town Beach, Swansea Country Club, Freetown-Fall River State Forest, and Colt State Park. Although Swansea residents delight in the town’s tranquil environment, they also enjoy quick access to Providence, Rhode Island via I-195, which is just a 20-minute drive away.

School data provided by
GreatSchools
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
