There is a lot to like about Rhode Island - I moved here from Massachusetts (Boston area) and lived for a while in London, UK prior to that. The landscape and beaches here are amazing. There's a general sense of community here that I haven't experienced in a lot of other places. New England is not the cheapest place in the US to live, but you're generally close to major cities (NYC, Boston, etc.) It's very creative here, a lot of artists, musicians and creative people live and work here. I'm glad to chose this as a place to live.

A sense of community you say? Lol. I tend to think quite the opposite. Most of Rhose Islanders are townies that were born and raised here with their clicks that tend to shun outsiders. I've lived in a few different states and I think Rhode Islanders are some of the rudest people out there.
