How safe is Providence?

Very safe city. Of course there are areas to avoid and always better to be with someone at night. Specifically Kennedy plaza and the northwest area can be a bit dodgy at night. But I jog alone at night and feel just fine.

It is a small city and there is generally not too much to do. I studied there. Altough I was advised against, it is safe to walk around, even though the city is not very walkable in terms of sidewalks. It is not too budget-friendly, but not worse than in other parts of the US. It is safe to use public transport, I recommend the Wave app.
