Providence est la capitale et la ville la plus peuplée de l’État du Rhode Island, aux États-Unis. De 1703 à 1842, elle fut le siège du comté de Providence. C’est aussi l’une des premières cités anglophones fondées dans le pays. Avec 178 042 habitants (2010), elle est également la plus grande ville de Nouvelle-Angleterre après Boston. Son nom lui fut donné par le colon et prédicateur Roger Williams, qui fonda la ville au XVIIe siècle.
