The median price of homes in Wilsons is roughly $300,000. Sales data is limited since properties here are rarely listed.

When residents drive to Blackstone for errand runs or a bite to eat, they’ll pass the main attraction around these parts – Richlands Creamery. The third-generation dairy farm is family-owned and offers tours in the summer and spring. Visitors can see how the farm’s roughly 500 cows are cared for, where they rest and where they’re born. The farm store sells goods from various local farms, such as Goodwin Family Farm’s fruit jams and Mardelian Farm’s goat milk soap. A couple miles down the road, Blackstone’s Main Street is lined with locally owned businesses like American eateries Farmers Cafe and Mitchell’s Restaurant and Lounge. Walmart and Food Lion are on the town’s south side.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
