Add me to the list of Boston refugees invading Providence. I spent all weekend there (again!). The nightlife is incredible, it's more like Montreal or New York than stiff, boring old Boston. I am (hopefully!) purchasing a three decker on Broadway, Federal Hill, assuming the P&S goes through. For what I'm paying, I'd get a burned out three decker in Mattapan (no kidding, that's how ridiculous Boston real estate prices are). I did all my research, and I think Federal Hill will be the new South End in 3-5 years. All the gay bois are moving there. I missed the boat in 1990 when I could have bought a 2 bdrm condo on West Springfield (it just went for 800k). Word to the wise: Providence is a solid investment, and I'm sure that while I'm waiting for the real estate prices to blow through the roof, I'll have a marvelous time exploring every niche of the beautiful new city I am now calling 'home'.
