How is the Boston RE market for those who are working in it or have insight? Looking to switch from NYC market to a secondary market (Boston, Denver & DC are top choices at the moment) and was curious how job competition is, comp/hour similarities, etc

Similar comp in Boston, better lifestyle in all
nyc to boston (Originally Posted: 07/02/2009)
I need to somehow get from NYC to Boston in one night. I have to leave NYC after 8 pm and arrive at Boston before 7 am. I have checked the train and airplane schedules and I have found nothing. Does anyone know what I can do?

All these offer ways to get from NYC to Boston after 8pm. You'll arrive a little past midnight for the buses.

If you decide to take the fung wah... you may save a few bucks but you're better off risking your life hitch-hiking.

thanks but how come jetblue won't let me select boston as a "where to"?
bolt bus is amazing. free wireless, laptop plug points, and on some, leather seats
jetblue flies JFK to BOS. Also check continental from EWR.
There is an amtrak train that leaves in the middle of the night.
The buses are a very cost efficient way of getting from one city to another.
If you're a little more flexible with cash, the US Airways shuttle is highly recommended. One of the few joys of flying left. Nice lounges in both LGA and BOS, with Bloomberg terminals at LGA. Frequent flights, flexible scheduling. Taking it this weekend. First class upgrades confirmed both ways, $89 tickets.
There is a 9pm LGA to BOS on weekdays. 6am shuttle arrives at 7:03am. How tight is your schedule?
thanks for everyones help, i think i will go with the boltbus for my trip back
Just drive - only like 4 hours, all 95-N. I regularly made the NYC-Boston trip due to a significant other (no homo), borrowed my family's car that lives on UES and drove it. Of course if you don't have a car that could make things rough.
I prefer Amtrak. It goes from city center to city center so you don't spend an extra 50 dollars or so each way on cabs to and from the airport. The trains are also pretty comfortable.
actually was a great experience for me on multiple occasions. The wifi can be slow at time but the drivers make great time and you can't beat the seats.
Go w/ Boltbus. Just took it last weekend from Boston to NYC and it worked out very well.
Bolt Bus is awesome. The power plugs are the highlight.
Take the Fung Wah. It's a shaky ride but overall effective (and cheap).

Pretty much just like Bolt.

Not as dangerous as the Fung Wah.
