Follow where the jobs are. If you secure decent jobs in RI and you can afford $1500 within a 40 minute drive, I think you will be fine. This state is TINY!

I’ve been gone since 2001, but it holds a special place in my heart. Nobody ever truly leaves, they just go away for a while. Then they miss things like swimming in Social Ocean, the fragrance on NETCO on a warm sunny day, getting serenaded by being yelled at by crackheads outside of Moonlight Weiners, the women fighting for equal pay on Arnold Street, the smell of secondhand smoke mixed in with your lo mein at Chan’s, the sound of piss sizzling in the sauna when that weirdo keeps sneaking back in to the health and racquet club men’s locker room, buying an autumnfest button in August and wearing it on your Tazmanian devil sweatshirt until June. You just can’t find these things anywhere else.

Too early night wanna wait untill at least 9-10 but not sure how active anymore after that big mill fire In some other city

Who is your provider? They can't / shouldn't be blocking a streaming service on your WiFi.

Are they blocking the app or just the ability to stream the fight? As that would be ESPN blocking it on their app.

DeLuise Bakery. Oaklawn Ave

Pawtucket, Woonsocket, warwick, west warwick, Coventry, east Cranston. Toke your pick.

Mobile Methadone van won't shut down there in spite of public health officials....Its not needle city but its trying pretty hard.

I’m glad it was helpful info for you! Flourtown, Germantown, and Cherry Hill (that’s NJ) are some other nice ones.

I quite like Atlantic City. Way less hectic than Philly, but you still have that great location.

I hear you on Oregon. Either way, moving to the east coast is a great idea. Just a matter of where fits you best.

I’m originally from Florida and moving this way improved my quality of life ten-fold. Most states have great healthcare, great proximity to other cities/nature, tons of top-notch schools, access to immense history/art, and you can find higher paying jobs here.

If you were able to handle SF crime/HCOL, I think you’re good in this general area then.

I wish you luck on finding your new home! Feel free to message if you need any other advice. It’s not easy but so worth it.

I have a community pantry outside of my business, it gets a lot of traffic from the neighborhood. 257 Warren Ave East Providence

It sucks. Gone are the days of renting to save for a house, rent is more than a mortgage.

Well I definitely don't mind a healthy mix of creative and country. Too much of either and you get artists copying each other to stay on trend or unhappy and overworked people
