Bedroom community. No hospitals. Everyone goes to mass general. It's an average town. Opioids are making a mess of a simple neighborhood. Crime is up.
In Boston it is all over after 45 where work is concerned.
Too cold and snowy in the winter.
As long as one is in good health, Boston offers it all. Walkable city, cultural opportunities abound, dining is great. Expensive city, however.

Would like to see a patio homes. You see them all throughout the south where my mother lives. There are starter homes and finisher homes all in the same neighborhood near Jackson, MS. Everyone looks out for each other. Everything is close.
