My Experiences in Boston

This is a place for the rich or people with government assistance. Im a Computer Consultant and had one of the best jobs at a hedge fund in Boston making $150,000 a year. Still was having a hard time paying bills even after moving to a marginal area near Jamaica Plain. Rent hitting you hard, electric bills in the winter at $600 a month for 700 sq feet place.
Rats and skunks in the back yard on top of all that, to send your dogs running! The people living in the projects downtown Boston were living better than me!
If you have kids, don't let them miss more than three days of school for any reason, or you will be at the court house. If they are sick, they have to go to school and the nurse will send them home. You go to that court house twice, the state of Boston can take custody of your kids!
The teachers were thugs at the schools in Boston. If you cannot afford private schools, your kids live in fear of the teachers, guns, and drugs.
Living downtown New York is a piece of cake compared to Boston. You may move to Boston with high hopes, but you will not make it for long!
