About Rhode Island

The smallest state in the U.S., Rhode Island is called the "Ocean State" for the one-tenth of its area is water. Situated on the Atlantic coast, the State of Rhode Island and Providence Plantations, as it is officially called, is bordered by Connecticut, Massachusetts, and a water border with New York. Rhode Island apartments and houses for rent are located in every city and town, including the capital and largest cities, Providence, Warwick, Cranston, Pawtucket, and East Providence. Sailing and boating are quite popular recreational activities in Rhode Island, as so much of the state sits close to harbors and bays. This love of the ocean helped to inspire not only the state nickname, but also its license plates and state quarter design.

Rhode Island apartment rentals and house rentals are located in all 39 cities and towns that call this great, but small, state home. Several colleges and universities, as well as a few minor league sports teams, offer sightseeing and athletics events to enjoy. The beautiful coastline, harbors, flat lowlands of Narragansett Bay, and uplands of New England make up the geography of Rhode Island.
