West Warwick is a town in Kent County, Rhode Island, United States. The population was 29,191 at the 2010 census.
West Warwick was incorporated in 1913, making it the youngest town in the state. Prior to 1913, the town, situated on the western bank of the Pawtuxet River, was the population and industrial center of the larger town of Warwick. The town split because local Democratic politicians wanted to consolidate their power and isolate their section of town from the Republican-dominated farmland in the east.

The place are very friendly
I'm actually not sure how much the town is age friendly or unfriendly.
Lots of hills making it bad for walking. They do have very conveniently placed shops and markets but they are all driving distance and the nearest bus stop is at least a 20 minute walk away.
Transportation and community engagement, for sure. There are many ways for public transport, as well as other resources available to people of any age in the community.
There is a local market right down the street from my house. There are plenty of senior housing for those interested
