I lived there for a couple of years, and I have lot of family that still does. The biggest cons are the traffic. 38 backs up and it binds up almost the entire town because of how it's laid out.

The schools are OK, but it has the same problems as all the suburbs in the area. Also near the state hospital is the gun club. It's a very active club, so if you are in that part of town, consider the noise.

Is the traffic restricted to certain times of the day, or is there traffic to contend with during the whole day?

Around school times and rush hours are the worst of it. The plazas near market basket and Walgreen are pretty busy most of the time.

You can take some back roads around the major bottlenecks, but you almost always need to cross 38 at some point.
