About this title

Synopsis

So, you're moving to Rhode Island. Congratulations! You've chosen a state you can fit on a napkin, where the official state drink is coffee milk, and where the traffic laws are treated as gentle suggestions. This is not your standard moving guide full of tips on how to pack a box. Instead, this is the indispensable, slightly sarcastic user manual the Ocean State forgot to write. It’s a deep dive into the quirks, customs, and downright baffling aspects of daily life in America's smallest state, designed to help you navigate your new home like a local, not a bewildered transplant.

From mastering the local dialect of "bubblers," "grinders," and "wicked" to understanding the unwritten rules of the road—including the kamikaze-style "Rhode Island Left Turn"—this guide has you covered. Learn why you're about to know everyone (and their cousin), how to choose your home base from the urban energy of Providence to the coastal chill of South County, and why your new neighbor is probably on a town council. This is the insider information you need to avoid the classic rookie mistakes and start feeling at home from day one.

Prepare to navigate the essential, and often infuriating, rites of passage that every new resident must face. With dedicated chapters on surviving the journey to the DMV, understanding the infamous car tax you pay every year, and wrestling with the state's unique utilities, you'll be armed with the knowledge to conquer Rhode Island’s most baffling bureaucracy. The guide also serves as a four-season survival manual, preparing you for the soul-crushing humidity of summer, the blizzard-induced milk-and-bread panic of winter, and the glorious, fleeting perfection of a New England autumn.

Discover the true heart of Rhode Island through its legendary food scene, with a crash course in the holy trinity of hot wieners, calamari, and coffee milk, along with party pizza, Del's, and doughboys. Plug into the state's vibrant arts culture, decode the fiercely independent neighborhoods of Providence, and master the art of the beach day, from choosing the right pass to observing proper seagull etiquette. This guide is your cheat sheet to cracking the code of the lifelong Rhode Islander and unlocking all the charm and character your new home has to offer.
