CtownMikey-- Thank you so much for the response! What's your comments about the Woodridge/Meshanticut area? Is it a very safe and quiet place? Thanks in advance! David

Hi CtownMikey, Nice to know you living in Cranston. What do you think about the elementary schools there? Do you have any communities to recommend? Thanks for your input! David

Thanks a lot, Recchia.

Frankie811--Thanks. Do you have any ideas about Ridgewood, Oaklawn, and the Western area? I'll look into East Providence, hopefully the traffic on the bridge will not be that bad. Thanks. David

Thanks, Garris. If I choose to live in East Providence, will the traffic in rush hours be a big problem because of the bridge? BTW, You are right that this thread should be in "Considering miving to Providence". In fact I have posted again in that forum. I clicked the "new topic" button when I posted, so it went here. Thanks. David

Hi all, It's so nice to be in this wonderful place! My family is planning to move to Providence in August, and I have a 6-year-old kid who will be in the first grade in the fall. Since almost everyone here says that the public school systems in Providence is not good, I am considering nearby cities (maybe within 20-30 minutes drive). Barrington and East Greenwich have excellent schools, but the housing price there seems unaffordable (I am looking for a single family in the range of 200-300k). I found that Cranston has decent schools, and the housing price there looks reasonable. Are there anyone here familiar with the city Cranston? Can hou recommend some communities which is safe and quiet and also has good schools? Thanks in advance! David
