Welcome to Beantown, a proud beacon of American independence. You cannot turn a corner without encountering a place that played a role in American history. In addition to its rich history, this town kills it with top-notch museums, music, comedy, and theatre options.
Remember your days in the library at four am finishing a paper? Stumbling home from that frat party? Consuming absurd amounts of Ramen noodles? Scholastic and fantastic, Boston is home to a whopping 43 colleges and universities – a true college town. Not only do the myriad students of Boston make this town an intellectual assembly, they contribute to the city's well-being and financial success. Hungry? You're in luck because the restaurant scene is incredible. Hello lobster rolls and clam chowda. Looking for a night out on the town after dinner? Boston's creative scene eschews the glitz and glam of New York or LA and the bars close at 2 am. Oh, and if you're from out of town, put down that Starbucks – your new spot is Dunkin Donuts.
Boston is a city defined by its pride. Neighborhood pride, general Boston pride, and most notably, Red Sox and Bruins pride. Sports are taken very seriously in this town. If you aren't a big sports fan, you should probably fake it. Just be sure to know what you are talking about if you're going to opine. If there is one word to describe a Red Sox fan, it is passionate.
The Boston economy keeps on ticking, with over 100 colleges and universities located in the Greater Boston Area, and an even larger number of company headquarters. The people here are some smart cookies, with major employers such as MathWorks (the company that brought us MATLAB and Simulink) and internet startup HourlyNerd. Not to mention the major players in the technology and biotech sectors, including Abbott Laboratories, Advanced Cell Technology, GenZyme Corporation, Boston Scientific Corporation, Charles River Laboratories, AMD (Advanced Micro Devices), ADI (Analog Devices), Avid Technology, and Azimuth Systems. Meanwhile, companies such as Bain Capital are still going strong in the financial sector, and the local universities and landmarks continue to push the education and tourism industries.
