Seriously. I grew up driving in RI . Thurbers ave curve is responsible for so much driving anxiety in my life. Thankfully, everything else seems easier now that I don't live in RI anymore.

I'm more impressed that a mid 90's aurora is still running. 🤣

USPS considers it domestic mail under the Compact of Free Association we have with them.

Don't think there are really any casinos in Providence though...

A good idea, though I admittedly don't know any that also have a bar, though I am of course open to suggestions!

Mare has an older crowd. You’ll realize that there’s a plastic surgery market in PVD.
Mare is “fancier” but neither has amazing food (typical for a venue that attracts for the ambience).

Eight years ago, I was renting a 2 bedroom apartment on Wickenden Street for half that. It's crazy to me to see how expensive rent has become in Providence that $1,600 is a good deal.

I don’t think this internet image is accurate whatsoever in saying providence is the 4th most expensive in the country. There is no way it is more expensive then San Fran,LA etc. There are 1beds that pop up in hot pads for $1000-1100 all the time in providence. Of course a few years ago it wasn’t even close.. I lived in a 1 bed on Doyle Ave for $700 a month in 2019. I’m not saying there isn’t worse deals then what you got… I’m just saying it isn’t good. Stay where you’re at if you like it. I’m lucky because my landlady isn’t raising rent but I pay ~$1000 for a 2 bed in prov currently.

I would say wages are starting to increase a little. I’m seeing a great deal of jobs starting at $20 for entry level work, such as Electric Boat, RIPTA, and Toray. I was interviewing around and those were the numbers I was getting. I’m sure in a year or two $20/hr will be the norm for a lot of employers.

Lol an oldie but a goodie. Just glad it didn’t have to live up to its safety crash rating tonight.
