Living in Boston
Boston is a vibrant city that attracts a diverse group of students and young professionals. The city is large enough to offer the resources and modern conveniences of a metropolitan area, yet small enough to discover by foot in just a day or two. Each neighborhood in the Boston area has its own personality and something unique to offer.
