The capital of Rhode Island. Kind of like the illegitimate lovechild of Boston, LA, and the Soviet Union.

The beastin' capital of Rhode Island that's (still) run by the mob where you can be shot, stabbed, grab some Dell's, watch the polluted river be lit on fire, go to college, and buy rims.
The phrases you'll most hear in Providence are ... "I know a guy .." "Yea, it fell off the back of a truck." "Walking on cobblestones wouldn't be so hard if I wasn't drunk." "Oh, shit ! The popo's !" - haha nobody says the last one.
It's a kickass town and nothing compares to it.
Suck on that Boston.

That nonprofit's website has a serious case of Providitis - all of their goals are to "provide XYZ."
Nonprofits always have the same narrative:"We exist. Give us money so we can PROVIDE things"

-The Present Mayor is Gay while the former one was corrupt
-Everywhere besides downtown and eastside is out of bounds, you really have no buissness there unless u live there, visiting someone, or going somewhere.
