Living in Smithfield, Rhode Island

What is Smithfield, Rhode Island like? Smithfield sits in northwestern Providence County — a mix of a busy commercial village center at Greenville, historic mill villages along the rivers and ponds, and rural northern reaches of orchards, reservoirs, and wooded lots. Bryant University and easy I-295 access anchor the town's eastern side.

Buyers find everything from historic mill housing and village colonials to newer subdivisions and larger wooded parcels up north in apple country. 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 Smithfield

  • Greenville. The town's largest village and commercial center, with colonials, capes, condominiums, and shopping along Putnam Pike (Route 44).
  • Georgiaville. A historic mill village on Georgiaville Pond, with preserved mill housing and waterfront open space.
  • Esmond. A former mill village around the Esmond Mills, with older single-family and multi-family homes.
  • Stillwater & Mountaindale. Wooded northern areas near the reservoirs, with single-family homes on larger lots.
  • Spragueville & Apple Valley. Rural northern Smithfield, known for its orchards and farms, with newer homes on open land.

Smithfield Property Taxes

Rhode Island cities and towns set their property-tax rates every year, and Smithfield sets its own rates for residential, commercial, and tangible property. How a given home is taxed can depend on its use and classification.

Because the rates are reset annually, confirm the current Smithfield figures and how a specific property is classified with the Smithfield Tax Assessor before relying on them — I'm glad to walk through it for a specific address.
