There are tons of great foods to explore. Also, the schools nearby are fun to visit.

people often have interesting accents. I moved here four years ago and was surprised that the stereotypes about Boston accents are very much true. They should also know that it is very cold in winter. I had to buy a warm coat since it was freezing as early as November.

What’s Cambridge without Harvard and MIT? Harvard and MIT are some of the biggest employers, the reason for a million great restaurants, the reason there are endless world-class companies in the city, etc. The liberal city is home to adorable (and expensive!) homes. Do yourself a favor and live along the Red Line; it’ll make your life a whole lot easier.

there are plenty of houses to choose from, and as it is Boston, the prices will be high. The houses are decent in terms of quality, but you can find some that are very good, at a reasonable price. There are also some high-end apartments about 3000 a month. Those have pools, gyms, all the luxuries. You can also find townhouses.

There isn’t much to do in my hometown, but it’s very close to a major city. The best restaurants in the area are small and family-owned. My favorite spots to visit on the weekends are the bowling alley, the movie theater, and the library. You’ll also be just a short drive from the beach once you move there.
