Thank you so much for providing the valuable information 🌹🤗
I like how one of the pros was that you can leave and go to cooler places that are nearby LOL
Caitolent, we love MA, even though there will always be cooler places
Loved it! Such great info :)
So glad you liked it, Leah!
Great video as a native of Boston and the last 60 something years. I would not trade Boston for any other place in the US!
I am with you on this
Boooring
I loved the video💞
Thanks for watching, Tvere in
Great video!! Boston was founded in 1630, btw :-) And we get hurricanes and nor’easters!!
Yes, we do get snow storms, for sure! Hurricanes? Don’t remember a major hurricane in the last 30 years, Geoffrey. Thanks for the comment!
@@BostonAreaHomes Yup. Last hurricane was Bob in 1991 - 30 years ago. We did get a tornado watch in the Worcester area yesterday.
Native here - we used to get 48 inches of snow in 50's and 60's- now with global warming almost never . except for that freak year a few years ago. Also snow melts fast. I was an avid cross country skier and there is rarely enough snow to do it in the last thirty years - unless you go to north.
Thanks, Charles Stuart, for your comment. The weather changes everywhere and I have a feeling people will be moving from the West Coast to East Coast to cooler temperatures as the summers there become unbearable.
Hey how are you?
I loved your UA-cam channel and the tips you give for us
Awesome job!!! 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
Thank you, Caio, appreciate it!
I'm from Canada and I go to Boston every year. Boston winters are not cold at all.
LOL, thank you for that comment, Teddy! Cold is a relative thing, isn’t it? Of course, it also depends what was the temp when you were visiting. Some winters are very mild, but once in a while we get really cold, bone chilling temperatures.
@@BostonAreaHomes If you don't mind me asking, kind lady, what are the lowest temperatures your ever experienced in Boston?
I think -10-15 degrees F in winter is very common, sometimes going lower to 5 or 0 degrees F. I remember once it hit -5F
@@BostonAreaHomes I admit it pretty cold, but here, winter temperatures can reach -25 F.
There were settlements in Boston by the 1630s!!! Its real name is Tax-achusetts... It 's no fault insurance means you pay anyway...
I come from Cape Cod btw, which means I'm saner than the Bostonnuts and fruits...
Massachusetts gets severe Northeasters, hurricane force winds surf every year...The snow comes down horizontally sometimes... &&&&& occasionally a HERicane will come calling...
Information on greater Boston by and large have been very well explained. But road conditions are not bad as one might get an impression after watching the video.
Thank you for your comment, Pinaki Sur.
@@BostonAreaHomes Thanks Mam
There is a 512 other Township other than Boston in Massachusetts ...
Amazing, moving from NYC to Boston tomorrow. It feels like a small town in comparison. :(
Definitely, Paul. Boston is so much smaller. Which area are you moving to? Suburbs or city of Boston?
because it is, I moved from NYC to Boston too
I've lived in Worcester...and being from Puerto Rico no one knows what road rage and humidity is until you've been to PR...
LOL, yes, everything is relative, Gianna!
Thanks for the info. Me and my husband are a young couple and we'd like to move to Boston 💙🤝 HARVARD|UNAM

Great, I am glad to hear this video was helpful. Watch my other videos as well, about different towns and Boston Neighborhoods, will be a good prep for you, Evelyn Zednanreh
Thank you for the review you are a very beautiful and classy lady. Much appreciated. I am considering moving to the Plymouth/Duxbury area in the near future and I am a lifelong west coast guy - kind of scary
Thank you, you are very kind, @Jess Boysen. Good luck with your move, Duxbury is great and you will be close to the ocean.
The pro plenty of jobs, the con very very very expensive housing minimum wages should be at least $25 ,one room in Boston, $1100 wtf.insane.not talking about the cold weather and rude ppl.
I totally agree with you that minimum wages should go up to reflect the housing prices.
Thinking of possibly moving from Los Angeles to Boston (or its surrounding areas) in the next two years! Loved this video and your channel overall. Thank you!
Yeay! Thank you, Manny! You made my day! Happy to help, if you will need assistance buying a place here.
An ok video. Should be called pros and cons of Boston vicinity. I lived in Deerfield for 13 years and it’s much warmer there and no road rage at all.
You are right, Mason Parker, I got similar comments from others. Since my channel is geared toward people who will be relocating to MA because of jobs, they will mostly be living close to Boston. But I hear you loud and clear. I will make a video in the future, probably, to include the Western Ma, Cape and the islands for a complete overview of MA.
@@BostonAreaHomes I look forward to seeing it. According to my good friend Bill who lives in Holyoke and goes to Boston sometimes, the road rage is very real on that stretch of I 90.
Im in Michigan we got bad roads
So, we are not alone, great humbled, I guess anywhere there is a lot of snow and plows that's what happens
*Starting early is the best way of getting ahead to build wealth, investing remains a priority. The stock market has plenty of opportunities to earn a decent payouts, with the right skills and proper understanding of how the market works*
The zenith of investment platforms deals mainly with Bitcoin and forex trading.. investing wisely
I agree with you
Have been trading offshore, I’m yet to make my first 9000usd... any recommendable expert to trade with?
an expert to trade with, giving you the required mentorship for a successful profit outcome... piss of advice
But I learnt the hard way. Blowing over $7000acct side trading with no mentor or expert
Spring is non-existent ...
Also, we have all 4 seasons!
You still get a taste of spring is what she’s saying. I’ve lived in LA my whole life and we have the same weather all 12 months so I get what she’s trying to say
Dee See, Spring is a mix of rain, sun, gorgeous Spring weather and sometimes snow. That is our Spring. It might have not come out the right way in the video
spring in New England lasts as long as tulips do- 2 weeks haha
@@saxenas LOL
I think realtors should not overestimate the cold and snow. The Midwest is MUCH worse. Also: Massachusetts is NOT just the Boston area.
Noted, @tovarisch
Whats a not so ridiculously expensive are to live if i worked at waltham?
you can try Billerica or Wilmington, also Framingham, Woburn and Stoneham
Not true Mass isn’t just Boston!!!
Noted!
House price is not right....falling apart...still high price. Smart people live in there. They must fix the road.
Thanks, John Harding, for your comment
So this is more about Boston not really Massachusetts as a Commonwealth
Yes, many viewers said the same. I will make one including Western Ma, Cape Cod and all the other parts
You say Massachusetts but all I hear is Boston
Yes, Darrell, my next video about Ma will include everything from west ma to cape cod and beyond. promise!
Sounds like Massachuttes ends in Worcester.
Yes, many people commented about that. 80% of the population of MA lives in the Boston area, but I hear you. Correcting that oversight in my next MA video
No orchestras? 😉😉😉
Hi John, no orchestras, no. Majority of people are not interested in that, unfortunately.
Boston Symphony Orchestra is in Boston and they're one of the best orchestras in the world.
@@saxenas, I am a professional musician, graduated from the New England Conservatory in Boston and lived there for almost a decade. I’m very familiar with Boston’s music scene and I love Boston Symphony. I’m also a good friend of Noune who herself is a highly trained, in fact fantastic, opera singer. My question to her was meant as tongue’n cheek, which I thought I had made obvious with the three winking smilies. Boston’s symphonic orchestras, especially Boston Symphony, the Boston Pops and BMOP are so world renowned and such major attractions for cultural tourists that they would deserve at least a passing mention from a professional musician like Noune.
@@johnsarkissian5519 oh haha. didn't even see the emojis.
@@johnsarkissian5519 true, I try to include cultural things in my videos, for example, in my Seaport video I mention Boston Lyric opera's production and Institute of Contemporary art. But didn't mention orchestras in this one.
Not many pros, but alot of cons!
Ed Gardiner, I don't feel that way. I love living here
Aww spoken like someone who came in last place, so sad.
You forgot traffic as a con. The traffic is terrible in eastern Massachusetts. This state is not worth the price that it is. The beach parking is at least $20. Boston is hard to get into and drive in, the T is old and dangerous to take. This state is overrated 🙄
@Jedi Lowrie the traffic is bad during rush hour, yes. It is a very old state. The reason MA is hot is because of the job opportunities, the education level, the academic excellence, the location being closer to Europe. That is what is attracting people to move here. I agree it is very expensive but depending on what you are doing, if you are in biotech or medicine or technology, it is a great place to be, especially if you have school age children.
MIT is NOT an Ivy.
Thanks for the correction. It is IVY league in my book, Paul DeGregorio
@@BostonAreaHomes
Better than most or all of them just not factually correct! I was a “townie” in Boston and surrounding area for my whole childhood. I totally agree with you on the quality of education at MIT.
You have to separate Boston from Massachusetts. You spoke about Boston, not the Cape, not Western Massachusetts.
You may be right, JD D
@@BostonAreaHomes I agree with the other writer. Please change the title! Other areas of the state are quite different.
It's all about Boston ... So I'm glad they don't mention the Berkshires we can do fine with out them
1690?
1 in 100 people in Massachusetts is a doctor.
Is that true, JD D?
Unfortunately, the cons outweigh the pros.
Thanks for your feedback
Your cops
Our cops are great
Boston was founded in 1630. You have never lived in BOSTON
Thanks for your comment, even though unfounded. Living in Boston right now.
You are so rude!
Not much pros in this shvt state
Most miserable place I ever lived. Nastiest, most stuck-up, two-faced, back stabing not to mention self-loathing people I'd ever met. Eeeecch!
Sorry you had such a bad experience here, @Anthony David
And probably the most annoying accents besides the southerners lol
Very few people talk with a thick Bostonian accent, Babbaloza
@@BostonAreaHomes I think they all live in my house - haha
@@B-ch6uk LOL
ppl from MA r racists
Been there, done that. The taxes will kill you! I moved to Florida!
Believe it or not Ma taxes are not the worst in US
