Well for those that don't know Boston....wouldn't know that though Boston does not technically have borrows...it does have different sections very similar to New York.
Roxbury (poor)
Dorchester (lower middle class/poor)
West Roxbury (affluent)
Mattapan (poor/lower middle class)
Jamaica Plain
Just to name a few.
So If you wanted to take just one part of the city and compare...put Manhattan up against Beacon Hill.....Forbes 17th most expensive Zip Code in the country. No New York zip code makes the top 20.
