[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Boston and surround suburbs are quaint, but unless you have lived there a long time communities can be insular. It is hard to “break into” groups and takes a lot of effort. It’s easier if you have elementary school kids and there are PTA activities. Speaking from direct experience. I can’t speak to NYC. The DC area is more welcoming, experienced with new comers and there was a specific interest in our neighborhood & school to integrate and welcome new families. That said, each school, community and neighborhood is different. It also depends on how active the parents are in creating/building and sustaining their own micro communities. [/quote] Boston is FULL of highly educated immigrants, so much diversity.[/quote] Not blacks [/quote] If you are looking for an area with over representation of African Americans you should state so. That’s not diversity. Boston is as diverse as NYC, one of the most diverse cities in the world. [/quote] I have lived in Philadelphia, NYC, Boston and now DC. Boston is not as diverse as NYC. [/quote] It's not vastly different diversity-wise. https://www.indexmundi.com/facts/united-states/quick-facts/cities/compare/2507000.3651000[/quote]
