    "Walkable commute. Or easy under 10 minute drive anywhere. Easy access to highways and downtown. Not sure what else to say. There are buses, but there is a definite socioeconomic division of who uses it."

    "Fox Point is an amazing & diverse neighborhood with great food options. Very walkable to downtown, Brown, RISD & pet friendly. Parking can be tight & occasional rowdyness at night but that's city life & part of the flavor you sign up for. Among my favorite communities in PVD. "

    "I’ve lived in this area for 10 years and love it here. It’s very walkable and has a nice, small neighborhood feel, while also being super centrally located. "
  • Dan R.
    "I see people walking dogs everywhere. Shops and businesses have dog treats readily available. There are not a lot of open spaces so you might have to keep your dog on a tight leash. "
  • Mason B.
    "So many dogs in this area. Just don’t bring them to the dog park near the bridge to East Providence. Too many parasites. "
  • Mason B.
    "I drive to work everyday, but I would love to bike, if only I didn’t need my car for work... It only takes 10 minutes drive to get to work and I stop to pick up a coffee at my local favorite cafe. Not bad at all!"
  • Mason B.
    "Maybe not walk at the Dog Park, I’ve heard there’re too many parasites. But the neighborhood is dog-friendly and safe enough to walk around in at all hours. "
