The Town of Wareham is rich in history dating back to Colonial times. One of the earliest industries was making nails out of the plentiful bog iron, and the Tremont Nail Factory, one of the earliest businesses, continues in business to this day. Farming, saltmaking, ship building, and cranberry farming were industries in the 1700s and 1800s, and in more recent times Wareham has become home to a diversified industrial and commercial economy. Today thriving business districts can be found along Cranberry Highway, the town Main Street, and other parts of town.

A popular village of Wareham, Onset is well-known for its beautiful Onset Beach, its waterfront Victorian estates, and for its summer concert series, other family activities and the fun, festive atmosphere of its village center. The Wareham Gatemen are the town's representative in the Cape Cod Baseball League, known as the best summer league in the nation where many of today's major leaguers played college ball.

Wareham is bordered on the west by Marion and Rochester, on the north by Carver and Plymouth, and on the east by Plymouth and Bourne.
