Biggest mistake in my life was leaving Boston. People weren’t unfriendly, they just had busy lives and didn’t have time for BS, but if you were waiting at a T stop you could easily strike up a conversation. I lived in Brookline and I can easily think of 5 different places with great food (at reasonable prices) in that area alone. Sure, it was kinda cold in winter; okay it’s not as easy to navigate as Manhattan, but it’s got character. There are ways to live cheap there but yeah the biggest killer is rent, either you’ll be commuting a lot or you’ll be living cramped. Still, it’s one of my 3 favorite cities in the world.
Boston is my favourite city in the US (that I’ve been to). Everyone was super friendly.
I’ve been to cities where people are “warmer” and more outgoing, but it’s that fake American facade everyone wears. Boston was a little rough in places but way more genuine.
I visited Boston from the UK and found everyone to be super friendly. Had lots of conversations with folks who just started chatting to me, and would go out of their way to recommend things to do. I also found the same in NYC. And Paris. I think friendly people are everywhere.
