Boston Finance Opinions?

Curious because everyone I know that lives/has lived here loves it but only complaint is housing costs which I get. Also don’t know too too many people in the finance world there but I know it is great spot to be in. Can anyone back this up?

I’ll be biased as i grew up in the area. NYC > BOS as a younger person, but i’d say past 26-28 as you slow down there is no better place than boston. Summertime is hard to beat, winters are tough but the vibes are immaculate in general. Also is a hub for a few large PE firms (Bain, HarbourVest, Audax, etc.)

Feel free to pm i could go on and on about the city culture and what not
