Providence. You have Brown and the advantage of it having a huge and vibrant 
Portuguese-American community. Boston is just an hour away, New York a 
couiple of hours away.

Oh and its Lovecraft's hometurf so you might have some affinity with it. Not 
that Providence needs to rely on Lovecraft for its weirdness, the city is a 
crazy (and ratehr corrupt) place thats been growing like crazy in all sorts 
of ways.

Though I agree with Bryant about Boston. I feel Boston  is one of the 5 best 
places to place an Occult campaign in the US (and my home turf).
