Hi all,
My husband may have a job opportunity in Providence, and we're looking at areas that would be family-friendly to live nearby. We're coming from South Florida.
I have a few questions that I haven't seemed to find by looking through threads so far.
Are there reasons to live on the MA side rather than in RI? State income taxes or anything that would penalize living in one state and working in another? Attleboro was mentioned in a previous thread of being more "suburbia"?
We have 3 kids in school. Two in elementary and one in middle, so high school is also on the radar. Does one state or area win the better schools battle? Extra-curriculars like baseball and cheerleading opportunities are important as well.
And lastly, I'm also in school full-time. So we're also looking for an area where I can be close to a 4year institution.
I know that's a lot of variables, but I'd appreciate any help I can get. I just need a starting point...
