What's the best community in Rhode Island?

What is the best place in Rhode Island to live, whether you're a young single, a starting family, or empty-nesters? What city or town combines affordability, safety, schools, arts, culture and recreation and nightlife in the very best balance? GoLocalProv's 4th Annual Rhode Island's Best Communities takes a close, analytical look at all 39 cities and towns in the state to come up with that very answer. After more than 100 hours of analyzing thousands of data points, we have the answer for 2013.

Coming Monday, June 17th: An entire week devoted to RI's Best Communities 2013

With updated data, GoLocalProv reveals the very latest look at every community from one end of the state to the other. Starting Monday, we reveal the rankings, starting from the bottom of the list at #39. Every day we'll reveal more communities, moving up the list toward the Top 10, which will appear on Thursday. What day will your town make the list? And at what ranking? Which towns ranked lower than yours? Which ones higher? Compare the rankings every day, as we move toward the #1 town.

On Friday, GoLocal will reveal its Best Communities 2013 Chart, with the latest data on each city and town, so you can compare results across the state, from housing costs to NECAP scores, from crime rates to arts and culture sites.

New for 2013: Voices from the communities

GoLocal will speak with local officials, as well as experts on communities and urban life throughout the week, sharing their insights on what makes our cities and towns more or less livable. Read what they have to say about how communities are changing and how that affects our lives right here in Rhode Island. 

We all have reasons we love (or are frustrated with), the places we live. But at some level, everyone might think theirs is the best. We're back to settle the fight. What really is the best community in Rhode Island? What place, in a small state of 39 cities and towns, is the all-time best? Who gets the blue ribbon for 2013?

Coming Monday.
