10 minutes from the hospital can vary greatly during traffic. I would avoid the east side of the bay as getting over the bridge that’ll be under construction for a year is a horrible commute. The area immediately surrounding the hospital is kind of dicey. As mentioned in a previous comment, the Edgewood community in Cranston is pretty close and is mostly professionals. It’s close to Pawtuxet village, Roger Williams Park and the highway.

And during traffic you can use allens ave and Narragansett parkway to get there if the highway is jammed. They go right through to eddy and the hospital

I wouldn’t even hit the highway if I lived in Edgewood. I worked on Atwells Ave and live in Warwick. I just took Warwick Ave straight into the city and cut through the neighborhoods of traffic sucked.

I’d echo this. Edgewood (Providence or Cranston — we share a zip, 02905) or Pawtuxet Village (Cranston) or even Gaspee Point (Warwick) are all close enough to downtown to be easily commutable (no highway) but very family friendly.
