Boston, MA
Many pros, but all are outweighed by the cons -
1/31/2022I've lived in/near Boston my whole life almost. It has many pros such as a big city feel, extremely safe, reliable train transportation, great food.
However any pro is outweighed by the extreme cost of living. Small apartments, let alone houses, are unaffordable to own. The prices of housing are extreme. The government tries to rip you off in any way it can.
Another huge con is the people. Due to cost of living, many people in Boston are poor and constantly trying to keep up appearances. Many (not all) are shallow unfortunately, and finding a stable person here with a nice personality is like finding a needle in a haystack. Boston has ultimately failed its normal, non-millionaire citizens. I can't wait to move out.
