Barrington, New Port, and Narragansett are all great places to live. If you want some land and wouldn't mind driving less than a half hour to either Providence or Worcester, Mass. With your budget, you can get a nice house with a lot of land in Cumberland, Lincoln, Smithfield, and North Smithfield. I would say at least 1 1/2 acres + for a new home and probably more land with an older house. Sorry I gave up my real estate license

Barrington is kind of where I'm leaning atm. But still doing some research on areas RI isn't the only state I'm looking at but is one of the tops next to MA and CT

Barrington is really nice. I know the people who were brought up in the Boston area can't afford the property prices in their own hometown, they move to RI for better prices. That has been happening since the 70s during the computer boom, they bought all along the border towns of RI. My cousin's son who works in Boston just bought a new home in the Foxborough area(better get your Patriots gear). I live close by too 146 so it's a lot easier to get to Providence or Worcester area. If you do work from home then you can pick the place to live. If you know anyone in the area call them up and spend the weekend at close by Hotel in whatever state/town you choose, go to different ones. Good Luck with your search.
