Reply to Advice on finding good landlords in the area? by 412gage
I can connect you with a good property management guy who helped my cousin find a place - he was flexible with him on some of the details to make it work, and it was a big to help to my cousin after he struck out on a few sketchy landlords and was feeling ready to give up. The guy is part of a mission driven company that wants to help build community, not just make as much money as possible

My wife’s ex explained to her in her late twenties that it rhymes with “rower”

Drawer. I’m embarrassed to admit I thought it was “draw” well into adulthood.

Pierced Ears. As my high school English teacher once noted, it’s only 4 letters long. PSDS.

Westerly is nice. It has a little bit of everything, from the big box stores to the little shops and restaurants in Watch Hill.

Try Organizations like Neighbor works and Community care alliance. I believe they can point you in the right direction for getting a place to live possibly giving you really good assistance

While I live in Westerly, I do spend far more time in Pawcatuck, Stonington and Mystic than I do in RI outside of Westerly. So I agree with your observation that Westerly is more connected to CT than to RI. CT operates a bus under SEAT that serves the area up to Pawcatuck, but I know nothing more about it.

Even in that case, saying nothing seems better all around. A snarky reddit response isn't going to help anything.

If you can find housing and employment in the core area, you could mostly get by without a car. A bicycle or scooter would help a lot, I think. It's unfortunate that we don't have at least a local loop to serve the main commercial areas.

Dude has literally approved more oil permits and pipelines than the last guy that was in office by this time.
But sure, think what you want.

Maybe you could drop some links to reliable sources that prove your "facts"?

Nobody is going to rent to you and that's not judging or being unkind. You should be in a family shelter until you can get on your feet.

There's not much reason to public transport to Charlestown, richmond, Hopkinson etc if you don't live there or are visiting someone. I'll golf down there from time to time but have never found myself heading there to try out a restaurant or bar or what not. I used to work in westerly per diem but don't often go down there. I honestly go to mystic more as there's more to do and it's faster than getting off exit one and getting stuck behind someone going slightly below the speed limit on RT 3
