Historically Italian community where new people are moving in
In Geneva, people eat breakfast at a box car diner and go home to bungalows and ranch-style houses on sloped suburban streets. This North Providence neighborhood draws new residents with its affordability, quiet lifestyle and convenient location near two major Rhode Island roadways. “Historically, North Providence was an older Italian community, but that’s starting to turn over. Younger folks are starting to come in,” says Ryan Pickering with JPAR-Premier Destination Realty in Providence. “It’s pretty central, and it’s a lot more affordable than Providence and some of the neighboring communities.”

Eggs for breakfast and lemonade in the afternoon
Route 15, also known as Mineral Spring Avenue, is the main commercial thoroughfare in Geneva. Chain eateries like Starbucks and Dunkin and retail stores like Pet Supplies Plus have a presence here. Dimmed blue and purple lights flood the dining room at Jacky’s Galaxie and Sushi Bar, a popular local restaurant known for its Pan-Asian cuisine. Across the street at the Social, people eat pizza and sip old fashioneds. In a boxcar on nearby Douglas Avenue is the Geneva Diner, which opened right after World War II as a diner trailer. Today it bills itself as a cozy 1950s-style diner with a hint of Latin flair. Near the diner is Del’s Lemonade, a Rhode Island institution selling frozen drinks. True Rhode Islanders drink Del’s by shaking the cup and sipping straight from it. Anyone drinking it through a straw will stick out like a sore thumb. The nearby North Providence Marketplace shopping center also features a tenant mix of some of the top names in modern retail, and neighbors can shop for groceries at the nearby Shaw’s supermarket. “North Providence is an extremely connected community,” says Pickering. “It’s one of those communities where everybody knows the mayor, and the mayor is very well connected. It’s an everybody knows everybody kind of town.”
