CITY INFORMATION

Rich, elite, provincial, Boston has Old World airs mixed with New World arrogance and proudly trades on its colonial and political past. But it's got charm, energy and power too: a meeting place for moneyed New Yorkers heading north, backyard to the Kennedy clan and the New England aristocracy. Towering skyscrapers stand beside historical cultural outposts to merge past and present, best seen in places like Quincy Market and the caf閟, bars and shops of downtown. Boston is the largest city in Massachusetts and unofficial capital of the region known as New England. Boston is one of the oldest, wealthiest, and most culturally significant large cities in the United States. Its economy is based on education, health care, finance, and technology.
