Description: Great things from the tiny state of Rhode Island
Making a snowman this winter at home in Providence.
I recently received an email from a reader who, in researching a potential move to RI, stumbled upon my post A Year in Providence . Noticing that the post was a few years old and that we appear to still live in Providence, he wanted to know my “updated thoughts about the area.” So here they are for you, reader, and for those of you curious about making a move to the Ocean State.
When I wrote A Year in Providence , I commented that it was the longest we had lived anywhere within the prior six years. In just one more year, it will become the place that I have lived the longest in my life . As scary as that sounds (even to me), I can honestly say that I feel at home here in this small city in the smallest state. That said, no place is perfect. So if you’re considering moving to Providence like I was a few years ago, I will provide you with my own now more-seasoned pro and con list.
