Boston isn't more corrupt they just catch them. Boston is no more racist than any othr city.

maybe BOS has more museums than CLE, but surely you have to take quality into account, no? For Museums by city, i'd rank the three cities: NY, CLE, then BOS.

lol, Cleveland may be like the #10 museum city.

Aw, but average salaries in Boston are higher to compensate for the higher expenses. You can do it if you want!*

*kind of, just make sure you plan that really well and have fallback plans and enough savings for at least six months**

**six months under a pessimistic budgetary plan, not an ideal one***

***pessimistic budget plan does not mean you should be pessimistic! pessimism often rolls itself into self-defeatism****

****sometimes, though, you really are just screwed in and the light switch is off*****

*****and the power lines are cut******

******yea, you think it's just a metaphor, but really, poverty can really lead to having your lights off*******

*******figuratively and literally

Yep. Cleveland's likely in the top ten nationally for museums, but definitely isn't No. 2. Anyone who's spent extensive amounts of time in Chicago (as I have) knows that.

Tought to beat Chicago, New York, Washington DC (the best in my opinion) and San Francisco. I'd even rank Boston behind those.


Also, the racism card is laughably played out at this point. Am I the only one who sees the irony in people making sweeping, ill-informed generalizations about a city (that many of them haven't even been to) being prejudice?

Really? NYC? I had a racial slur tossed at me on Flushing Ave just last month. Sadly it happens everywhere. Not 'only in New England'.

Your just Bitter cause your stuck in the city that hasn't won a sports championship for 50 years. Also your more likely to get shot in Cleveland than find an exceptional museum.

Boston is a world city. Cleveland, just isn't.
