==Geography== Warwick is located at {{Coord|41|43|N|71|25|W|type:city}} (41.7181, β71.4152).<ref name="GR1">{{cite web|url=https://www.census.gov/geographies/reference-files/time-series/geo/gazetteer-files.html|publisher=[[United States Census Bureau]]|access-date=2011-04-23|date=2011-02-12|title=US Gazetteer files: 2010, 2000, and 1990}}</ref> According to the [[United States Census Bureau]], the city has a total area of {{convert|49.6|sqmi|km2}}, of which {{convert|35.5|sqmi|km2}} is land and {{convert|14.1|sqmi|km2}} (28.46%) is water. Warwick's entire eastern edge is waterfront, starting with the [[Providence River]] at its northern border with [[Cranston, Rhode Island|Cranston]]. Conimicut Point marks the end of the river and the beginning of [[Narragansett Bay]], which extends beyond the city's southern limit on its way to the [[Atlantic Ocean]]; two southern Warwick peninsulas, [[Warwick Neck, Rhode Island|Warwick Neck]] and [[Potowomut, Rhode Island|Potowomut]], enclose the water to form [[Greenwich Bay (Rhode Island)|Greenwich Bay]]. Warwick is bordered by [[Cranston, Rhode Island|Cranston]] to the north, [[West Warwick, Rhode Island|West Warwick]] to the west, and [[East Greenwich, Rhode Island|East Greenwich]] to the south. The city's southernmost neighborhood, Potowomut, is a [[exclave and enclave|semi-exclave]], reachable by land only by passing through East Greenwich; through Potowomut, Warwick also shares a border with [[North Kingstown, Rhode Island|North Kingstown]]. Because of the North Kingstown border, Warwick borders two Rhode Island counties: [[Providence County, Rhode Island|Providence County]] and [[Washington County, Rhode Island|Washington County]]. The following [[village]]s are located in Warwick: {{columns-list|colwidth=22em| *[[Apponaug, Rhode Island|Apponaug]]<ref name="ri.gov">[http://www.ri.gov/towns/view/warwick/ RI.gov: Cities & Towns<!-- Bot generated title -->]</ref> *[[Arnold's Neck, Rhode Island|Arnold's Neck]]<ref name="ri.gov" /> *[[Brush Neck Cove, Rhode Island|Brush Neck Cove]]<ref name="ri.gov" /> *[[Buttonwoods, Rhode Island|Buttonwoods]]<ref name="ri.gov" /> *[[Cedar Tree Point, Rhode Island|Cedar Tree Point]]<ref name="ri.gov" /> *[[Chepiwanoxet, Rhode Island|Chepiwanoxet]]<ref name="ri.gov" /> *[[Coles, Rhode Island|Coles]]<ref name="ri.gov" /> *[[Conimicut, Rhode Island|Conimicut]]<ref name="ri.gov" /> *[[Cowesett, Rhode Island|Cowesett]]<ref name="ri.gov" /> *[[Duby Grove, Rhode Island|Duby Grove]]<ref name="ri.gov" /> *[[East Natick, Rhode Island|East Natick]]<ref name="ri.gov" /> *[[Gaspee Point]]<ref name="ri.gov" /> *[[Greenwood, Rhode Island|Greenwood]]<ref name="ri.gov" /> *[[Governor Francis Farms, Rhode Island|Governor Francis Farms]]<ref name="ri.gov" /> *[[Hillsgrove, Rhode Island|Hillsgrove]]<ref name="ri.gov" /> *[[Hoxsie, Rhode Island|Hoxsie]]<ref name="ri.gov" /> *[[Lakewood, Rhode Island|Lakewood]]<ref name="ri.gov" /> *[[Lincoln Park, Rhode Island|Lincoln Park]]<ref name="ri.gov" /> *[[Nausauket, Rhode Island|Nausauket]]<ref name="ri.gov" /> *[[Natick, Rhode Island|Natick]]<ref name="ri.gov" /> *[[Norwood, Rhode Island|Norwood]]<ref name="ri.gov" /> *[[Oakland Beach, Rhode Island|Oakland Beach]]<ref name="ri.gov" /> *[[Old Buttonwoods, Rhode Island|Old Buttonwoods]]<ref name="ri.gov" /> *[[Pawtuxet Village]] (also in [[Cranston, Rhode Island|Cranston]])<ref name="ri.gov" /> *[[Pocasset, Rhode Island|Pocasset]]<ref name="ri.gov" /> *[[Pontiac, Rhode Island|Pontiac]] (also in [[Cranston, Rhode Island|Cranston]])<ref name="ri.gov" /> *[[Potowomut, Rhode Island|Potowomut]]<ref name="ri.gov" /> *[[Riverview, Rhode Island|Riverview]]<ref name="ri.gov" /> *[[Shawomet, Rhode Island|Shawomet]]<ref name="ri.gov" /> *[[Warwick Neck, Rhode Island|Warwick Neck]]<ref name="ri.gov" /> *[[Wildes Corner, Rhode Island|Wildes Corner]]<ref name="ri.gov" /> }}
