Location
Get Directions
Located about three miles northwest of Downtown Providence, Elmhurst boasts tree-lined streets, quaint architecture, and well-landscaped lots. This wooded suburban neighborhood is best known for housing Providence College and the Roger Williams Medical Center. Residents here have ample rental choices with affordable to mid-range houses, townhomes, and apartments available for rent. Elmhurst is predominately residential, but Highway 44 and Chalkstone Avenue host an abundance of shopping and dining options including major chain grocers, bakeries, pizza spots, and more. The Elmhurst Clean and Green organization keeps residents actively involved in the community, hosting films and concerts in Fargnoli Park and sponsoring holiday events such as the Halloween Greet and Meet, workshops on water conservation, tree-planting events, and neighborhood cleanup projects each month.

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.
