Where do you live now? What sort of neighborhood are you looking for? We've got a lot of nice neighborhoods, but without knowing your priorities (walkability? Houses with yards? Interesting events and community orgs? Affordability?) it's hard to recommend. There's no really bad part of Providence, imo, unless you are very uncomfortable in neighborhoods with poor people. Some neighborhoods may be less of a good fit depending on income/interests/noise tolerance etc.

I’m saying that people who say “I don’t see how race has anything to do with it” and who don’t understand the type of dogwhistles this kind of post can bring out are generally of a particular type.

I suggest you rent a hotel room for three days and spend the time visiting various neighborhoods to get a feel for them. Also, many people do live outside the city.

My wife and I just moved here recently from CT. We are in Mt. Hope, and love it here. It's safe, quiet, and reasonably priced. It seems to be mostly young families here. The walkability is wonderful too. Downtown is a 15m walk, or a free ride on the R line if i'm feeling lazy.

From what I've seen, you can't go wrong on the east side.
