Tony, your daughters going to fall in love with a creepy older TA with weak wrists who's always talking about digging up treasure. Think he's gonna call you Tony Homo or just straight up Dad?

People say 'oh but it's fake' well maybe but I'd rather have a fake smile from a clerk than a grimace of existential anguish that makes me wonder why I came to Boston. I was there during the winter though so ymmv.

The other 20 is old timey Irish southie but it's rapidly disappearing and mostly those folks are just grumpy about it Dorchester has some issues but it's going to be Jamaica Plain 2 and a great investment at the moment. Home to tons of great world food particularly Vietnamese and Caribbean. Roxbury's similar in many ways depending on what part but it's not the gangland murder and rape fest grody would have you believe JP is hipster central with tons of great food and bars and has all sorts of fun stuff and incredible houses. I was just at a wedding in JP on Saturday and it was wonderful. Walked back to my place in Brookline afterwards, had no issues

Yeah you are right Philly, Washington DC, Baltimore and NYC are all meaner cities than Boston for sure though.

Get your daughter an off-campus apartment in Mattapan. It's inexpensive, and a great place to meet lots of new people! As for traveling to NYC, tell her to take the Fung Wah bus. Round trip is only $30!

JakeP posted:Yeah you are right DC is only a mean city if you're driving, although the metro will probably be getting pretty unruly as the maintenance and delays continue. Outside of the car, people are pretty decent to each other.

I would imagine you're only 5 months away from your daughter getting double teamed by TKE frat boys. They'll probably be bitching about how Tom Brady did nothing wrong re: deflategate while they go to town on your little princess too.

Mange Mite posted:Someone said boston was worse than nyc? Xan anyone confirm/ deny? Never had issues in any part of Boston but I'm there frequently,l so maybe I don't notice often. I mainly travel on foot or by public transit in the city too, so it's really not that bad. Also, in spite of what I've seen in past threads, you can find some great food in the city. Also, the area near northeastern specifically has a lot of stuff to do and some pretty good places to grab surprisingly cheap eats. Bars in the area are expensive as poo poo though so that could be a problem.
