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!
Johnston is a town in Providence County; it is the site of the Clemence Irons House, a stone-ender museum, and the only landfill in Rhode Island.
It is an average size town that has a lot to offer in terms of attractions, restaurants, shopping and activities. Not to mention that we are close to several cities (Providence, etc.). The people of the town are very friendly and welcoming.

Since Johnston is a tiny town, there are short commutes to get anywhere an individual would need to go. Furthermore, in such a small region with an extremely diverse population, there are myriad opportunities to interact with individuals from different cultures.
