Westerly

Westerly is the westernmost town in South County, Rhode Island, separated from Connecticut by the Pawcatuck River. It’s quaint villages and miles of beachfront attract thousands of tourists and seasonal residents every summer. Real estate prices vary from place to place, as well as the culture. Watch Hill is beautiful, private, and wealthy; Misquamicut has a more relaxed, “get away” vibe with a beach town atmosphere. That said, Westerly homes are highly sought after for their low tax rates, excellent school system, and picturesque location.
