North Kingstown, Historical town in Washington County, Rhode Island, United States
North Kingstown extends along Narragansett Bay, incorporating several distinct villages including Allenton, Davisville, Hamilton, Lafayette, Quonset Point, Saunderstown, Slocum, and Wickford.
The area, initially settled in 1641 as Kings Towne, underwent division in 1723, forming North Kingstown and South Kingstown, establishing its current municipal boundaries.
The Gilbert Stuart Birthplace Museum in Saunderstown preserves the heritage of the renowned American portraitist who painted George Washington's official portraits.
The Wickford Junction station provides weekday train service on the Providence/Stoughton Line, connecting residents to Providence Station and Boston's South Station.
The former Naval Air Station at Quonset Point, known for creating the Quonset hut design, has transformed into an industrial park supporting regional manufacturing.
