Explore Rhode Island

Rhode Island is the smallest state, with 39 towns and roughly 400 villages. Each one has its own feel, price range and commute, so you can choose how you want to live without leaving the state.

Narragansett Bay and the ocean shape daily life here. Providence has universities, restaurants and train service to Boston. Newport has its harbor and Gilded Age mansions. Farther north you’ll find mill villages, woods and easy highway access.

Towns right next to each other can feel completely different and sell very differently. That’s why I wrote these guides. Start with the one that sounds like you, and I’ll tell you what it’s really like to live there.
