North Smithfield is a leafy, historic New England town centered on charming mill villages (like Slatersville) with parks, trails along the Blackstone River and a quiet, residential vibe that makes multi-week stays comfortable, walkable and easy to recharge after shifts.
You’ll still be close to big-city amenities — a short drive to Providence for dining, theaters and major hospitals, and within an easy drive of Worcester for wider shopping and cultural options — so you get a peaceful home base plus urban variety when you want it.
