Message: From GoLocalProv by GoLocalProv Best Communities Team: A lively, ethnically diverse community rich with a history of Indian influence, Woonsocket has a legacy of industrial riches evident in its architecture. The origin of the city's name has numerous theories, but the translation “thunder mist” from the falls on the Blackstone may be the most popular. A city that relies on manufacturing as its primary form of income, Woonsocket continues to struggle with myriad challenges, from poverty to educational opportunity for its youth. http://www.golocalprov.comhttp://beta.golocalprov.com/woonsocket-38-ris-best-communities-2013
