Spent a week there last year. It's alright but I could only live there maybe a year or 2 at maximum. Culture, history, solid downtown/waterfront, sports, close to New York for weekend getaway. Public transit is fantastic.

New England flavor just doesn't suit me, plus lack of 400 Year Blacks.

Probably could eat good there as a black guy, but not for me. New York is the most north I could go longer than 2 years.

Ill give it a solid 7.

nat as bad as people,especially black people, say. i enjoy visiting in the summer, lots of history (New England has underrated black history) good food. black weath is lacking tho

the cacs from there are quite awful but the non white people there are cool.

 

[Dallas' 4 Eva]

fukk Boston.

 

[BmoreGorilla]

I been there a few times and

I know they got mad black people but you barely seem them. They got black folks contained for real. Plus the city is dirty af. There sports fans are woat. A lot of history tho so I’ll give it a 4 instead of 3

I’ve always wanted to visit Boston during the Fall season but I heard it was very so I never bothered going.

I'll give it a 6. It was fun, and I had the best salad I ever had in my life there lol...

It's like an East Coast version of SF, but with more black and brown people. I thought Roxbury and Dorchester were dope. The white people are loud and the obnoxious stereotype of the "tough Boston white boy" is a real thing, a grip of em were on The T using the n-word freely (to each other) while nobody black checked em...

Trains are raggedy as fukk there. Cold as fukk in the winter. Feels similar in size to SF/Dallas/ATL, they are all similarly sized and feeling...

Nah. It's worth checking out. Find and plan you a 3 or 4 day weekend. It's different and cool in it's own way. Walkable.

Im just saying I wouldn't consider making a life there, but if never been I would go.

What is a quadrennial black?

Black African Americans that ancestors go back to 1619 Jamestown, VA aka Quadrennial.

My sister went to Harvard for undergrad. I was in Boston a few weekends to visit her, it was okay. She hated that city though. I give it a 5.

Spent a week out there for work a few months ago. It was alright. Went to that new casino they got and had the buffet, and then got some seafood at some harbor near downtown.

Didn’t see many black folks. Gave the city a 6.
