I live pretty close to Fall River and I don’t really think it’s that bad, I used to go there a lot for work and I’ve had family that lived there, it’s like any small city, there’s going to be some type of sketchiness. If your looking to rent an apartment, I would personally be looking at East Providence, Pawtucket or Taunton, but the sketchiness level will be on par with Fall River. Pretty much anything surrounding Fall River is going to be a suburb and apartments will be hard to find. I would stay away from New Bedford though the sketchiness goes up a notch there. Swansea, Somerset, Dartmouth, Falmouth, Seekonk and Rehoboth are all nice but apartments will be limited and houses are crazy money. Don’t forget that you won’t be too far from Rhode Island so check that out too.

New Bedford is like Fall River. There are sections where nobody would want to live as well as some nice neighborhoods. The West End around Buttonwood Park is solid middle class and is close to Route 140 so access to Fall River is easy.

Falmouth is way too far. Better move closer to Boston and commute to Fall River than commute from Falmouth. Specially during the summer.
