Here’s a nice stat: Rhode Island has the fifth highest population of black men with college degrees or higher and one of the wealthiest states for black men.

The other five in order are
-Oregon
-Washington
-Colorado
-Massachusetts
-Rhode Island/Maryland

It’s a New England city filled with Red Sox fans. Def similar to Boston and filled with Cape Verdean chicks like Boston too

And for a northern city I think the percentage of black folks is increasing. Wonder if it’s black folks being priced out of Boston

The Providence Italians run the mafia in Boston

the city has a good number of black people and very good roads. I would recommend living in the surrounding cities though and commute in. You’re about 15-20 minutes from Foxboro and the Patriots

You have to put these stats in perspective. The black males in these areas are such a tiny groups. Plus, most of these black guys in these locations are student-athletes who have not shot at the professional league so they focus on completing their degrees.
