I find most nice people in the western part of the state, places like Coventry, West Greenwich, Exeter, Foster, Hopkinton and Gloster. Also, Tiverton and Little Compton in the east has very nice people. This is my honest answer as I find most city folk a little harsh at times.

Never been there, but heard a lot about it. I will now try to search for pics.

Maybe your landlord should switch to those cash cards like most housing authorities have. Just a thought.

When you say pool, you talking billiards? I'm a snooker player myself, but no one in Providence, or all of Rhode Island has it. Bo's Billiards in Warwick is a nice place. Bowling allies are a good meet up place, if you're into it. I'm a duckpin bowler. Used to frequent Mac's Bowlaway in West Warwick. If you're a true night owl, try Haven Brothers by City Hall in Providence. You'll meet with very interesting people. The food is excellent, too. Highly recommend. 👍🏻😎
