As I’d hoped, several commenters came to Boston’s defense after my post ripping into the city. A few choice excerpts, below.
From Mike:
My roommate just came back from Boston and she loved it — the history, the lobster rolls, [and] the Revolutionary War-era ship she got to pretend to be a wench on.
From Dez:
Education central, the best hospitals, a place for entrepeneurship to rest its head.
And from Ranjani:
Lots going on, culture, restaurants, nightlife, new people (and so many in our age group), etc. — but it’s smaller and more manageable than certain other cities.
Have your own reasons? Comment.
Boston doesn’t even like itself. It’s the only city in America with a population-wide inferiority complex.
