City - Boston

Boston has been shaping American history since 1630, and living here means that past is never far from the present. As Massachusetts' capital and New England's cultural and financial center, the city carries real weight — intellectually, economically, and architecturally. More than 50 colleges and universities call the greater Boston area home, with institutions like Northeastern, Boston College, and Berklee College of Music woven directly into the city's neighborhoods. That academic presence fuels a steady demand for innovation, drawing employers in life sciences, technology, finance, and healthcare.

Neighborhoods here each carry a distinct personality. Beacon Hill delivers narrow gas-lit streets and Greek Revival rowhouses, while Back Bay is known for Victorian brownstones and the broad sweep of Commonwealth Avenue.

School data provided by The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
