Boston is OK for education and tech jobs. Otherwise living in Massachusetts fucking sucks. The weather sucks, the food sucks, the people are cold and prudish. And living independently with any financial stability and quality of life in Boston proper is impossible unless you earn $100K+. And that's spreading to Cambridge and all the other urban parts, housing prices are impossibly high for a even a hole in the wall and just never coming down. Public transportation and social programs are OK, making life manageable for the working class as long as you live in a soulless suburb of one of the urban areas or get lucky with subsidized housing. Or if you're a tourist there are some museums and shit worth seeing. But plenty of tourist traps and the public beaches are filled with litter.
