I have moved to Massachussets from New Jersey. Am put up in Natick, some 25 miles from Boston. Looks like am going to be here for the next 6 months to 1 year. What a respite it has been to get out of NJ which was so boring and unattractive. MA has been a good experience so far. Boston is filled with colleges and the crowd is fantastic. (Am so much reminded of Poona ). Almost all the features that can qualify a 'good city' are in Boston. Lesser commuting distances, an efficient public transport system and a young vibrant crowd. Its a bit xpensive to live in Boston though and the average incomes are well above the national average.
So before the winter sets in, I should be able to see some of the happening places in Massachussets. Atleast I should go and see what MIT looks like :).
