I know we are all homers on this board but with the museum of fine arts, the isabelle stuart gardner museum, the Fogg art museum, etc. saying Boston does not have top art museums is silly. factoids...Boston last call 2AM. In CA including LA and SF no nude strip clubs that serve booze.
I would agree that Boston/NY/SF are the most "brainy" cities... I like the intellectual vibe in all of these. DC is right behind them.
All 3 cities have huge wealth gaps. Boston and DC have some of the worst ghettos in the country. SF used to have some of the toughest housing projects in the nation. There are still pockets left today.
I think we're being bias when we look at certain aspects of these cities.

Boston has some of the worst ghettos in the country?????? LMFAO!
Once again spoken like someone who has never been to the city. When you were conducting your survey about Boston was the 2nd question "how bad are Boston's ghettos?" After "Is Boston boring?"
Please share some more findings, you have been quite informative thus far.
