Living in Jamestown, Rhode Island

What is Jamestown, Rhode Island like? Jamestown sits on Conanicut Island in the middle of Narragansett Bay, connected to North Kingstown by the Jamestown Bridge and to Newport by the Claiborne Pell (Newport) Bridge. It's a small, largely residential island town with a walkable village at East Ferry, working farms, and a shoreline of coves, beaches, and state parks.

For buyers, Jamestown offers historic village homes, waterfront and water-view properties, and a quiet island setting minutes from Newport. Below is a look at the area, how property taxes work, and where the market stands now. For current prices and days on market, see the market snapshot near the top of this page. I know Jamestown well from working with buyers and sellers here, and I'm happy to help in English or Spanish.

The Areas of Jamestown

Jamestown Village (East Ferry). The walkable village and harbor on the east side, with shops, restaurants, and historic homes.
Beavertail. The island's southern tip, home to Beavertail State Park and its lighthouse.
Fort Wetherill & Mackerel Cove. State park headlands and a village beach on the south side.
Conanicut Park & the North End. The quieter northern end of the island, with homes and farmland.
Shoreby Hill & the waterfront. Historic and waterfront neighborhoods near the village.

Jamestown Property Taxes

Rhode Island communities set their property-tax rates every year, and the amount that applies to a given home depends on its assessed value and how the town classifies the property. Because the rate is reset annually, confirm the current Jamestown figure and your property's classification with the Jamestown Tax Assessor before relying on it.

I'm glad to walk through what the tax picture looks like for a specific address.
