This changes things a lot. I would say that besides Rehoboth in Massachusetts (which may be worth looking into), Rhode Island is your only real option if you want more of a rural environment while being in easy commuting distance to Providence.

This. If you want more rural, only Rehoboth and western Seekonk north of Route 44 would meet your requirements for Massachusetts. But, Rehoboth is growing quickly, lots of houses being built there.

After I left that comment, I checked the real estate there out of curiosity and it's ALL new construction. It never really made sense to me that there's a place so sparsely populated so close to really dense areas, including Providence.
