I love it here. A lot of people knock it, but I think RI has its own unique charm. Hang in there….it’ll always be here when you come back.

Where are you from? (If you don't mind me asking) We are considering moving from Rhode Island -- only temporarily for a job. But I like it here. Except the driving. But there's a lot to like. Everything is so close!

That totally makes sense. My only complaint is the winter - but it is mild compared to Vermont, haha. I love Vermont -- so green! But I agree, I'd rather be somewhere with more opportunities when starting out. Providence has a lot of what bigger cities have but without as much traffic and terrible parking. If you are ever around, check out Free Play during their 18+ nights (some are 21+). Plus, only an hour from Boston (and there is an easy train to get there) and a few hours from NYC (and there are cheap buses). Both my siblings went to RIC and really liked it. But I've known people who have gone to URI, Roger Williams, PC, Brown, and RISD who have really liked them.

I left RI a few months ago; can’t deal with the way these people vote anymore
