Rhode Island is my favourite place in the USA! It is where we bought our sailboat to sail back to Rhode Island and the community there, the food, the scenery and everything just warms your heart!
I’m in midlife crisis and just me and my pup Ike been looking for a new place to get fresh start . I feel like ai took a little drive around . Thanks so much for posting this 👌😎
Lived there over 20 years. Lived 1/2 from where video ended at gas/car wash place I used all the time. Been gone 26 years but still knew where I was. Lots of new stuff too. City looks awesome. Sad, place I lived is now an empty lot growing weeds.
i used to drive all these side streets baked out of my mind in the early 90's. No main streets unless absolutely necessary. That hill @ 6.00 ain't no joke on icy days. Camera doesn't do it justice. I miss that dump. I want NY system now.
zealotscout That's the East side, colonial Benefit street, yes the richest part is East side, Brown University, RISD, Thayer street, all nice!!, I used to live there for many years.
Okay, but I'm NOT sure what you mean by not a single family that's for sure?? The houses?? On east side a lot actually are, but many have been converted into condos and apartment buildings.
Many of the parents in Providence ignore traffic laws with their children. Many of these parents are civil servants. Youth in Rhode Island deserve law-abiding, ethical and conscientious civil servants. Their future depends upon it. What do you think? Should traffic fines in capital cities be doubled? Imagine law-abiding streets and adults in Providence! Imagine!!! Kids, if your parents ignore traffic laws, pray out loud before every family meal, "Lord, help my parents obey traffic laws, I love them."
RI civil servants and law abiding are not synonymous, the state is a crap hole and getting worse….born raised and lived there 33 years moved out 17 years ago been back a few times outside of Newport and south county, it really has gone downhill..
EDgarzote, as i commented in another's post: ....they all left for $40 hr. telecom jobs in mexico city. now i see a fat, toothless, sweaty, white guy, named billy bob joe, doing the neighbor's lawn. lots of them left the farms here in tampa/hillsborough to go back to m.c. - better pay and working conditions.
goth 1856 That's what I was thinking but is University Heights the first set of apartments around 1:15 or the darker looking ones around 1:30? I'm just wondering because I lived there when I was a kid 40 years ago. Thanks for posting this vid.
TNT Music Lessons , i grew up in jamestown and spent my adult life in prov-pawt until i was 40. been in tampa for nearly 20 years now and haven't had a chance to go back since. i miss it - but not the snow. u.h. is both times. prolly built at a diff time or to avoid too much sameness. it wasn't the greatest when i was there. the shopping plaza in front of it on n. main was kind of run down. looks all cleaned up now with even a whole foods and boston market there from what i see on google street view.
goth 1856 Yea I checked the satellite today too and thought the same thing. I lived there about 1975-78, it wasn't too good an area then. Doyle Ave was an area to avoid, we were all afraid of going over there. I remember you could walk from U.H to that old supermarket by going across the roof of the buildings, or at least it seemed like it. I couldn't tell if that's changed now on the airial. Crazy to see the same Mcdonalds is still there from 40 years ago, I had my first strawberry sundae there as a 6 yr old and whenever I get one these days I still think of that day. Unfortunately I haven't been able to visit since the early 80's so your video was really cool to find.
TNT Music Lessons , not my vid. darktac0s posted it. providence was a ratty place to be in the late 70's to the late 80's. i first moved to pvd in '78 at 429 pine st. skid row! now that whole street is full of hipsters. later on i moved to the pvd-pawt line - oak hill - a big step up. that whole u.h. area was to be avoided the whole time i lived there until i left in '96.
goober rownowsky shut up man with your vituperative harange against those who wish to make America their home. Shame on you for being negative from the word go. Not one good thing come out of you and you still wish to live in R.I.
Fullofpies LOL funny because literally the same street all the way at the end is the hood this is the east side that's the college area college kids get robbed all the time if they go all the way down the street
april ferns , you might be right. they all left for $40 hr. telecom jobs in mexico city. now i see a fat, tootless, sweaty, white guy, named billy bob joe, doing the neighbor's lawn.

Hello from Tennessee.
Looks like a attractive, scenic country town.
Nice video, lets people get to see what Providence, RI looks like. GREAT IDEA!
Lived there over 20 years. Lived 1/2 from where video ended at gas/car wash place I used all the time. Been gone 26 years but still knew where I was. Lots of new stuff too. City looks awesome. Sad, place I lived is now an empty lot growing weeds.

lol new york system, i remember they had one on elmwood st.
This is like East Side / Downtown. I grew up on the South Side and Silver Lake. I didn't recognize the area until Angel St... makes me miss home :(
Bam Faboyede same here towards Webster Avenue
Bam Faboyede I live in silver lake
This video was awesome but you should do another one going through downtown and fox point!
I work at Wings Over Providence, pretty cool vid bro. Shoulda went down hope street though!
This is a very nice video; not like most with loud music and conversation in it. Conversation is fine as long as it's about the video being shown.
How cold is it in Rhode Island yearly? Is it more warm in by URI in Kingston? How much colder is it as a state compared to Delaware?
Joe Shmoe winter time we can get below zero
Jo Shmo all parts of ri are cold
Hello from Tbilisi. Georgia, I would like to wisit Providence someday
Nice video!
Are all those houses single family houses? They look like they cost a fortune, where you driving through a rich part of town?
zealotscout That's the East side, colonial Benefit street, yes the richest part is East side, Brown University, RISD, Thayer street, all nice!!, I used to live there for many years.
I was born in providence that's for sure not a single family
Okay, but I'm NOT sure what you mean by not a single family that's for sure?? The houses?? On east side a lot actually are, but many have been converted into condos and apartment buildings.
I'm from providence but the richest city in Rhode Island is newport
+Apollo Sun I though north Scituate
It sucks my dad works for ri dot and we’re planning to move to the Carolinas
North?
How much would a 1 bedroom rental cost in providence average price?
Sila well that's the east side so they are expensive but a lot of one bedrooms in Providence RI about 600 to 750
Today about $2600.00
they r for college kids like apartments and they don't I actually live in providence so I see tons
COOL VIDEO THO! GOOD IDEA TO DO THIS SO PEOPLE CAN C WHAT CERTAIN CITIES LOOK LIKE!

Nice city, are there lot of Mexicans?
Yep
EDgarzote , someone has to make our tacos.
goth 1856 hahahahaaa, nice joke, but we mexicans can do a lot of things, such as professional things and difficult ones
EDgarzote, as i commented in another's post:
....they all left for $40 hr. telecom jobs in mexico city. now i see a fat, toothless, sweaty, white guy, named billy bob joe, doing the neighbor's lawn.
lots of them left the farms here in tampa/hillsborough to go back to m.c. - better pay and working conditions.
EDgarzote there is but not as much as Puerto Ricans Dominicans and Guatemalans
what apartments are those on the left in the beginning of the video?
Chris Santos the one on the n. side of olney? they're university heights.
goth 1856 That's what I was thinking but is University Heights the first set of apartments around 1:15 or the darker looking ones around 1:30? I'm just wondering because I lived there when I was a kid 40 years ago. Thanks for posting this vid.

goober rownowsky shut up man with your vituperative harange against those who wish to make America their home.
Shame on you for being negative from the word go.
Not one good thing come out of you and you still wish to live in R.I.
Fullofpies LOL funny because literally the same street all the way at the end is the hood this is the east side that's the college area college kids get robbed all the time if they go all the way down the street

Nice Vid but you gotta bump some tunes in the ride, maybe some good rap or atleast jazz lol.
No Mexicans
april ferns , you might be right. they all left for $40 hr. telecom jobs in mexico city. now i see a fat, tootless, sweaty, white guy, named billy bob joe, doing the neighbor's lawn.
+Townscabs I thought they were Dominicans and Puerto Rican? I live in revere right now that's why I ask
