West-Warwick is located in Kent County in central Rhode Island and is the "youngest" town in the state. As of the 2010 census, the population was 29,191. West Warwick used to be part of the neighboring city of Warwick until it split and incorporated in 1913. Prior to that, it was the most populated part of Warwick and the industrial center. It split from the city because local Democratic politicians wanted to consolidate their power and isolate their section of town from Republican-dominated farmland to the east. The area that is now West Warwick has the historical distinction of being home to some of the earliest textile mills in the United States. They were mostly situated along the banks of the north and south branches of the Pawtuxet River. The town of West Warwick is made up of several smaller villages, including Arctic, which is the town municipal center, and Lippitt - home to the historic Lippitt Mill. West Warwick is just a short drive to the beautiful beaches of neighboring Warwick. Things to do in the area include swimming, hiking, biking, horseback riding, and golf. In addition, there are seafood restaurants, shopping and many historical buildings, homes and neighborhoods to explore in the West Warwick region.
