Providence is a really great city. Like any area there are neighborhoods to avoid, etc. anything providence doesn't have you can find in Boston, which is not that far at all. I personally ducking love the area. Crazy good food scene, too. Like, unexpectedly so.

Don't forget we got more taxes here.

How much money are you planning on spending. It's about 1800 a month for a 2 bed here that isn't falling apart.
