Taunton is the county seat of Bristol County. It ranks as the third most highly diversified industrial center in New England, surpassed only by Bridgeport, Connecticut and Worcester, Massachusetts, both of which are several times Taunton's size in population. Taunton's location puts it at the transportation cross-roads of Southeastern Massachusetts, intersected by major state and interstate highways. It lies within 20 miles of deepwater ports and has rail connections to the main ConRail line in Southeastern Massachusetts. Its location also gives Taunton a market in excess of one million people within a 20-mile radius, and Metropolitan Boston is just 32 miles away. Perhaps nothing so typifies the quality of living in Taunton as the Taunton Green.
