It appears as far as RI goes you can only use box traps or body-grips. Steel jaw leg holds are not permitted. You need a special permit to trap "state land" and written permission to trap "private" land. Tough decision but the family always came first and I did a lot of sacrificing until the kids grew up and were on their own. You could always go to one of them, make your fortune with the plan to move back to Pa @ another time. You won't find the liberties there that you have in Pa. Tough decision....Good Luck R/I Trapping Regs.

Years ago I delivered chicken to CT and RI pretty regular. I didn’t care one way or the other for either but the people seemed ok.
Most recent trip was 2 weeks of strike duty in CT, that was fun.

The only 2 places remaining for conservatives in New England are northern NH and northern Maine, and they are both dying fast and neither has very good job opportunities. There are some conservatives in Ct and RI but very few and the liberals control everything. Mass is just as bad and Vermont is close. I grew up in RI but made my escape 43 years ago and I am very glad I did.
Don't be fooled by a high salary offer. You are likely to give it all back and more in higher cost of living. Look at real estate costs and compare the cost of what you have now with what it will take to get the equivalent there. Here is a tidbit from payscale.com: "Cost of Living in Providence, Rhode Island by Expense Category. Providence's housing expenses are 39% higher than the national average and the utility prices are 36% higher than the national average. ... Providence has grocery prices that are 8% higher than the national average."
With regard to RI, the state is a craphole due to decades of crooked politicians in office and a good ole boy system that would make any southern politician look like a saint. My advice is to stay away, stay away, stay away.
Be thankful that Pa still has open spaces and reasonable laws. If you are going to relocate go south or west, just don't go too far west!
