Review of Boston, Massachusetts


Boston is over-priced, over-rated and the people a
Star Rating - 11/28/2008
I've lived in many cities in different parts of the U.S. and I can honestly say Boston, MA is my least favorite. If you've lived here all your life, or you're a college kid or someone who just graduated and stays along with your friends, maybe it's a good place to live. But if you don't fit one of those categories, forget it! It's terribly difficult to make friends here. People are generally touchy, defensive and ready to pick a verbal argument over seemingly everything. Unless you're a professional you'll receive just a little above minimum wage. And if you don't have a college degree - FORGET IT!! It doesn't matter how much work expensive you are or how bright you are you won't get hired or even seen for an interview. Over-priced. Over-rated. Rude people. Can't wait to leave! YUCK!!
