City - Newport

Welcome to Newport, Rhode Island, where historic charm meets coastal elegance. As the "Sailing Capital of the World," Newport combines rich maritime heritage with modern coastal living. The rental market reflects the city's desirability, with one-bedroom apartments averaging $1,561, two-bedrooms at $1,953, and three-bedrooms at $2,057, showing year-over-year increases between 4.4% and 7.4%. Housing options include downtown apartments in preserved colonial buildings and waterfront residences overlooking the Atlantic.

Newport's waterfront defines daily life here. The Cliff Walk, stretching 3.5 miles along the shoreline, offers residents sweeping ocean views and glimpses of the city's magnificent Gilded Age mansions. Thames Street forms the heart of downtown, while The Point neighborhood showcases colonial-era architecture and tree-lined streets. Easton's Beach and Fort Adams State Park provide year-round recreation, with the park hosting the celebrated Newport Folk and Jazz Festivals.

School data provided by The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
