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

Quadrennial is an anniversary or event that occurs every occurs every 4 years.
Quadricentennial is an anniversary that occurs every 400 years.
US. Slave trade abolished in 1807
There are ADOS whose lineage starts in 1805 not the 17 th Century.

This does not make sense at all.

But I would disagree about the Jamestown part.

Brooklyn keeps on taking it.
As a Haitian I got family people in Boston.

from a Caribbean point of view the city is cool culturally speaking and has a lot of the same amenities as other east coast cities. I also have things to get into since the Caribbean community is strong.

the Cape Verdean chicks are dope. Architecture of the city is dope and nice transit options and a big career type of town.

7/10

^^ only because Boston is filled with those annoying Irish people.

Gave it a 7.

Been meaning to visit, preferably during the fall so I can get that true New England natural experience mixed with top notch urbanity.

Very compact size city with classic urbanity and a unique street grid that’s reminiscent of London’s. Significant history and a lot of culture. Seems like a Cac Mecca but with a strong visible presence of Blacks, Latinx, Asians, etc.

Black population is very diverse with lots of ADOS, Haitians, Jamaicans, Cape Verdeans, West Africans, Dominicans, etc.

One of the better, more comprehensive public transit systems in the country. Revered for its walkability, ethnic enclaves, cultural institutions, and higher education institutions.

When it comes to food, you’ll most likely find some good ass Italian, Haitian, Seafood, Chinese, Dominican, English, Vietnamese, etc.

Those winters gotta be a bytch tho. As well as all those annoying Boston Cacs/Ma$$holes with their Family Guy sounding accents and rabid sports fanaticism :hhh:

Underrated contributions to Hip Hop, R&B, New Jack Swing, and Rock tho.

Damn, I totally forgot that a few influential artists came out of Boston such as New Edition( Except Johnny Gill), Al B Sure, Aerosmith and MC Guru.

a solid 9, if not for the fact i grew up here I would probably give it a 6.5-7
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.
you went to the wrong area Boston is 26% black

EDIT; there is black people in mass yall just dont know where to look because you didn't grow up here. Boston is one of those cities where its tight knit families so if folks dont really know you like that they're not gonna really extend their hand to you

Edit 2: I see a LOT of 1 stars. I know more than half folks have never touched down here. How you rating a city you never been to :dahell:
