| Boston is the capital and largest city in Massachusetts, and is one of the oldest cities in the United States. Greater Boston as a commuting region includes six Massachusetts counties, Essex, Middlesex, Norfolk, Suffolk, Plymouth, and Worcester. Boston is sometimes called a "city of neighborhoods" because of the profusion of diverse subsections. A few of these Boston neighborhoods are: Allston/Brighton, Back Bay, Bay Village, Beacon Hill, Charlestown, Fenway/Kenmore, Hyde Park, Jamaica Plain, Mattapan, Mission Hill, North End, Roslindale, Roxbury, South Boston, South End, West End, and West Roxbury. |
