Providence is the capital and the most populous city of the U.S. state of Rhode Island, and one of the first cities established in the United States.[3] Located in Providence County, it is the estimated second or third largest citya[] in the New England region. Despite the city proper only having an estimated population of 171,557 as of 2008, it anchors the 36th largest metropolitan population in the country, with an estimated MSA population of 1,600,856, exceeding that of Rhode Island by about 60% due to its reaching into southern Massachusetts.[4][5][6] Situated at the mouth of the Providence River, at the head of Narragansett Bay, the city's small footprint is crisscrossed by seemingly erratic streets and contains a rapidly changing demographic.

A man walks over a damaged road in Paiapoi, 20 kilometers (13 miles) south of Christchurch, New Zealand, Sunday, Sept. 5, 2010 after the city was hit by an earthquake Saturday, Sept. 4. Christchurch  was struck by a powerful 7.1-magnitude earthquake that smashed buildings, cracked roads and twisted rail lines and also ripped a new 11-foot (3.5 meter) wide fault line in the earth's surface, officials said Sunday. At least 500 buildings, including 90 downtown properties, have been designated as destroyed in the quake near the South Island city of 400,000 people. But most other buildings sustained only minor damage.
