Beautiful town with many Italian influences! Good town to raise a family. Very family friendly! Our mayor is very involved with his community, from attending recreational sports games, to attending schools for good meeting influences. Johnston is a well rounded town with a lot to give!
One aspect that I appreciate about Johnston, RI is its diversity. Housing is affordable and the school system is competitive. Johnston, RI is a positive place to raise a family, especially young families. Further, Johnston is home to many senior residences that offer low-income housing and numerous social services. Johnston is close many of the larger cities, such as Providence and Warwick, that offer additional social, religious, shopping, and recreational amenities. Many will find Johnston, RI a safe and fun area to visit and live.
I love living in Johnston. It’s not that big of a town, but it does have a lot for you to do such as many restaurants, shopping and bowling. The nights are so peaceful here as the neighborhoods are quiet at night. Everyone in the town is so friendly. It’s not that far from many main cities such as Providence, which allows for quick travel! The safety in town is wonderful as police roam both day and night. There are many job opportunities in town! It’s also affordable and a nice town to start a family in! There’s barely any traffic so it makes it easy to commute to other places. And, it’s also a pretty diversified place to be! Overall, it’s a great place to live!
