Hi. I'm relocating to Rhode Island from Washington State.. I'm going to be working in Warwick and my wife is going to school also in Warwick. What are some good areas to live?

Parts of Warwick are very nice - will you be renting or buying? The Cowesett area of Warwick has lovely neighborhoods, also some off of Warwick Ave - Governor Francis Farm, Gaspee Plateau. The are some nice apartment complexes around as well. Also remember that RI is so small, you don't need to live in Warwick. you could also look into Cranston, North Kingstown, East Greenwich and still be within a 15 min. commute.

East Greenwich is close to Warwick and is considered by many to be one of the top two communities (Barrington being the other). A little further south is North Kingstown, more rural but also a nice place. West Warwick is generally not considered especially desirable. Same goes for Johnston, home of the state landfill.

Rainy compared to some places in the U.S., but not as much as Portland, OR. The weather is very seasonal: Southern New England gets all four of 'em (though spring tends to be short).

If you are looking for more of a country setting Coventry is very nice. Also, West Greenwich has lots of land but small population (less than 6,000).
