East Providence is a compact riverside community with walkable neighborhoods, waterfront parks and trails, a lively local dining scene and convenient amenities — comfortable and interesting for multi‑week therapy assignments rather than a place that feels like a dead end.
You’re minutes from Providence’s theaters, museums and college-driven arts and food culture, and roughly an hour from Boston’s major museums, sports, airports and nightlife, so weekends offer plenty of cultural, dining and travel options.
