I’ve got to tell you, I’ve lived in ri my whole life and no one, I mean no one says little Rhody.

[gopmop]

This video made me actually want to move to rhode island and not hang out with you

"Connecticut sucks, everyone knows it"

As a person from CT, I can confirm.

#10 False – I have a state beach pass and typically go to the beach in June – September.
#9 True – Taxes are high, but people are willing fund social programs and education institutions.
#8 False – Cianci was a complicated character, but people were loyal to him because of the major transformations that he drove to transform the city. It is a center for arts and culture in good part to the work of Buddy.
#7 True – I would say that there are so many public works repairs going on across the state especially the last 6 years including major bridges and highways.
#6 False – Friggin’ almost no one eats Johnny Cakes. In fact, you have to really look to find them on any menu…anywhere. (This is something you read) In fact, the food and the food culture in this state. RI has some of best Italian period (I’m originally from NY). Calamari is a fantastic dish. Midwest food is flavorless.
5# False. False. It is absolutely no boring. People come here to vacation. There is a vibrant live music scene, bars, sports, independent restaurants, and there are no less than 14 live theaters around the state. (I’ve lived in 9 states from NY to TX, NM, CA, MS, NC, MD, PA and traveled extensively around the US for work.) On this point, you are “smokin’ crack”. In fact, you can go into Providence absolutely any night of the week and many nightspots and restaurants are filled. Check out Water Fire as one example.
4# True – Yes, the accents were difficult for me to get used to coming from another area.
3# True – Weather is unpredictable. The amount of snow is a fraction of some other places in New England. My brother lives in NH where winters last 4-6 weeks longer for the snow to go away and typically 6-10 degrees colder. (someone moving from LA wouldn’t be acclimated to any snow, but we don’t have large forest fires, smog, mudslides, etc.)
2# Maybe true. I think weather may be a factor for some people.
1# False. There are a high-tech jobs available. I work for #4 on the Fortune 500 – whose corporate HQ is in RI employing some 30K people. (An insignificant number of people work at the universities and they are not major employers. Your facts are incorrect.) Hospitality industry is still a significant employer in the state. Why? Because tons of people visit here because it’s nice.

Overall, your list is wildly inaccurate. Did you just make this stuff up?

"Providence takes up most of the state"

No, just no. Not even close to true.

Top reasons to move to RI, Dels Lemonade, Iggy’s Doughboy and Chowder House, Block Island, and our beaches aren’t that freezing, unless you are from FL. I’ve lived here for many years and love my little state!

[AxelSpott]

I was born and raised in RI. I never eat seafood and there’s no way that RI is somehow more boring than like Nebraska or almost the entire Midwest. “Hey look, 50 straight miles of cornfield.” Besides for being the main hub between New York City and Boston we get every single entertainment tour here as well

[AnthonyParrilloRI]

I’d like to have an actual conversation with you and explain to you how this video is 95% wrong

[giganticjasper]

Jokes on you I already live in Rhode Island

[aaronlacasse]

Bro seriously everyone from Rhode Island spends as much time at the beach as possible and the water warms up by the end of June!! And buddy was a key component in building up the city of providence, even though he went to jail he was one of the peoples favorite!!

[Will-gpqo]

You can swim basically all summer and some of Fall

[EC-skki]

"The locals might go swimming once or twice a year"
*Visibly chokes on coffee milk*
Excuse Me??? I have gone swimming in RI more times then I can count. And I live there!

[adamdavis]

Also you can swim all summer what the hell is with this once or twice a year crap?

[jamescunningham]

-You must not be Italian. It's calamari!
-You're correct. The accent is a mix, but it's much better than listening to a Boston accent or a Brooklyn accent.
-The ocean is great for a quarter of the year.
-The potholes are really just a tax on out-of-state cars. We don't hit them because we know where all of them are!
-Depression...now I think I'm depressed because I watched the video. Oh well, now I will just watch your other video on 10 Reasons To Live In RI! That will fix me up!

I lived in Midwest and Colorado before and Rhody is so far the most authentic and cozy state to live with a lot of activities options a year around.

[bobz]

The current batch of politicians in RI make Buddy Cianci look like a chuior boy. He did some shady things but he loved Providence and turned downtown from a bunch of abandoned buildings to what it is today which is a place alot of people come visit.

[giggles]

Rhode Island? Com'n dude! How can a place sanwiched between New York and Boston go wrong? Rhode Island is the epitome of "The best of both worlds" Rhode Island is the most beautiful place I've ever lived in the USA. I no longer live there but I miss all the fun there is to enjoy there, beautiful parks, excellent nightlife! The coffee shop atmosphere, sidewalks all over the state. The accent in Rhode Island is for sophisticated people, so I can see how others will consider annoying. I am a serious critic to contend with, I am a not from the USA. I now live in the midwest, of this country, talk about boring, oh dude you don't know nothing. I haven't tried the west coast yet, which is the only reason why I can't call Rhode Island the place to live in the USA.

[codiesmith]

ive lived in ri my whole life and if only met like two people with a “rhode island accent”
