I also have t mobile and can’t get any service around the mall

I used to live in Baltimore (near Fell's) in the mid-2010s and just moved to RI a year ago. I honestly love it. I live in Cranston and everything you need is within 15 minutes! Providence is small enough of a city that it is walkable. The winters in NE are cold but bearable although the cost of heat is kind of nuts. The driving here is nowhere near as bad as in Baltimore although still not great haha. Food scene is 200x better than in Boston though not as good as DC. Crime I luckily have not had much experience with (my house and car in Bmore was broken into 2x in 2 years), so I'm very conscious of locking everything all the time and not leaving my car in the driveway (though all my neighbors do...) I'm also in my early 30s making friends, through group fitness mostly, but most people are very friendly here! The only culture shock I can think of is the number of people who have their windows tinted so dark (even tho technically illegal). It's really hard to see what other drivers are doing and I'm very cautious as a pedestrian when crossing the road.

I’ve heard a lot of people say Thai orchid but I was underwhelmed there even though the owners are incredible. I really liked Vatsana in pawtuxet village but have only been once!

I just saw this - so sorry about your situation and hope that you're able to get out quickly. If you've got any evidence of the neighbors making your apartment unsafe, you may have some legal recourse to either withhold rent but I'd consult a lawyer. There are a lot of low or no fee lawyers for this kind fo stuff!

ALSO you’re paying for the subsidization through a fee in the electric/gas bills so you might as take advantage of it

Highly recommend! Huge difference in the room temperatures and for the amount of work they did, it was very reasonable price.

Try Dave's for a healthy grocery store!

You should get a RISE energy assessment out to see about that insulation!

Oh just kidding, saw that you need the original title or copy of title for the VIN check. This is the most exasperating process, I've registered a car in 5 states now and this has by far been the worst.

Quick question since you went through this - did you need title in hand to do the VIN check at the police station? Or to have started the registration process at all? I'm still waiting for the bank to get the title sent to the Cranston DMV, but want to get started on everything else since MA registration is expiring.
