What is it like to live in Wareham?

“It’s a really good place to live and play, and it’s really family-oriented,’’ Wareham resident Jayme Perez told Location, Location, Location writer Rachel Lebeaux in August. “I see kids I grew up with and their parents on the street, and it’s all love.’’

Wareham has a population of about 22,000, an annual cranberry festival, and several beaches.

If a life on the South Coast is what you’re seeking, we found three ranch-style homes hosting open houses this weekend. Check them out:
