Let the rest of the U.S. know what we already do.
Between April 16 and May 15, visitors to travelandleisure.com can vote on which cities to include in this year’s “America’s Favorite Cities” survey, which opens June 1 –only five will make it into the ultimate lineup of 30 cities.

Show your dedication to the Ocean State by voting in the Travel + Leisure America’s Favorite Cities. There are just 10 on the list to choose from, so the choice is easy. Providence is one of them. We’re about to make it easier for you. What does Anchorage have to show for itself? Detroit is only known for rusting motors. Kansas City can boast a song title of the same name and barbecue sauce, but what else? Memphis has a sweeping history, but does it have a future? Salt Lake City needs to be sweeter to be a contender, and St. Louis is merely the largest city in Missouri. Baltimore, Houston and Cleveland are just too sprawling to feel cozy. The obvious selection, and one we all “heart,” is Providence. Cast your vote today.
