Living in Glocester, Rhode Island

What is Glocester, Rhode Island like? Glocester is a large, rural town in northwestern Providence County, near the Connecticut and Massachusetts corners of the state. Its heart is the historic village of Chepachet, a walkable Main Street of Colonial-era buildings, antique shops, and restaurants, while the rest of the town is forest, farmland, ponds, and homes on acreage.

Glocester is known for small-town traditions like the Ancients and Horribles Parade each Fourth of July, and for state recreation land at Pulaski Park and the George Washington Management Area. Below is a look at the villages, 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.

The Villages of Glocester

  • Chepachet. The historic village center along Route 44, with Colonial-era buildings, antique shops, and restaurants.
  • Harmony. A residential village on the eastern side toward the Smithfield line.
  • Clarkville & Chestnut Hill. Rural crossroads areas with older homes and farms.
  • West Glocester. The town's far-western reaches near the Connecticut line, with forests, ponds, and homes on acreage.
  • Pulaski Park & the state land. Wooded homes near Peck Pond and the George Washington Management Area.

Glocester 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 Glocester figure and your property's classification with the Glocester Tax Assessor before relying on it.

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