I like pane vino on the hill. It’s cozy inside and a nice place to bring guests!

Welcome! I hope you can come visit before moving because everyone has different favorite neighborhoods! Overall you’ll likely want to be in Providence if you want a walkable city experience.. there’s some great apartments downtown now you can check out.. my husband used to live at the promenade and liked it though it has since changed names. Other neighborhoods that are cute and still walkable to places are near hope street, wayland square, and fox point. Wayland is the most “uppity”, fox point a little hipster, and hope street somewhere in between.. I used to live a block away from the seven stars hope street area and loved the walkability, but also enjoyed that it maintained more of a neighborhood feel than downtown offers. It’s all personal preference!

Came here to say this! Elmhurst gives the opportunity to be close to the city but still tucked away in a residential neighborhood at a more affordable price tag. You’ll be more likely to find places with yards and driveways here. They may be on the smaller side but if you’re coming from Boston you may not mind. There’s a nice park and splash pad for kids!
