Kent County, Rhode Island
Kent County sits right in the heart of Rhode Island. It’s got a bit of everything. Cities, suburbs, forests… Warwick’s the big player here, with its airport and miles of coastline. But don’t sleep on the other towns.
West Warwick’s got a scrappy, industrial past. Coventry? Total small-town New England feel. East Greenwich is where the fancy folks live. Lots of history in Kent County, too. Old mills, Revolutionary War sites, the works.
The beaches are a big draw in summer. Goddard Park is great for hiking or just chilling out. Kent County’s not flashy, but it’s solid. Good schools, decent jobs, nice people. It’s Rhode Island in a nutshell.
