Plainville is city located in Norfolk County, Massachusetts, it’s home to about 9,000 residents. No official nickname, but hey, "The Ville" has a nice ring to it. The town is best known for its quiet suburban vibe, excellent schools, and being a short drive from Gillette Stadium—home of the New England Patriots. Oh, and books! It’s home to An Unlikely Story, the indie bookstore owned by Diary of a Wimpy Kid author Jeff Kinney.

Unlike some Massachusetts towns that say “no dice” to casinos, Plainville embraces the action. The state legalized casino gambling in 2011, and in 2015, Plainridge Park Casino opened as the first legal casino in Massachusetts. It’s the only one in town, but if you’re craving more, you won’t have to travel far.

The Plainridge Park Casino, Plainville

Right in town, less than 3 miles away, this is Massachusetts' first and only racino—a casino with live horse racing. It’s got over 1,200 slot machines but no traditional table games. If you're into electronic blackjack, you’ll find it here. Plus, live harness racing from April to November keeps things exciting. The casino’s gaming space spans 44,000 square feet, and bets on slots range from a penny to $100. Hungry? The casino has a sports bar and a Dunkin’ because, well, this is Massachusetts.
