Boston is divided into the following neighborhoods:

• Allston and Brighton (Allston-Brighton, All-Bright)
• Back Bay
• Bay Village
• Beacon Hill
• Charlestown The district, located between the Charles River and the Mystic River, was the traditional home of Boston Navy Yard workers and employees. Since the naval shipyard was closed in 1974, young families in particular have moved to the area. The naval yard itself was taken over by the National Park Service and is now part of the Boston National Historical Park.
• Chinatown
• Dorchester (Dot)
• Downtown The Downtown is one of the oldest districts in Boston and is divided into the Neighborhoods North End and Chinatown. Although the population of the city's neighborhoods has been mixed over time, the origins of immigrants are still clear. In the North End, which was mainly populated by Italian immigrants, there are still many Italian restaurants. In Chinatown there are many restaurants offering delights from the Far East.
• East Boston (Eastie) Today, the East Boston district is mainly known by Logan International Airport. In the past, however, the shipyards in this part of the city were the most important industry, so East Boston was one of the most important destinations for immigrants from all over the world. This can still be seen in the wide range of international restaurants and bars. Also the family of John F. Kennedy lived in this neighborhood after she emigrated from Ireland.
• Fenway Kenmore (The Fens, Kenmore Square)
• Hyde Park
• Jamaica Plain (JP)
• Mattapan
• mission Hill
• North End
• Roslindale (Rozzie)
• Roxbury
• South Boston (Southie) The South Boston district is dominated by Irish immigrants. In recent years, this district has been home to top-class restaurants and hotels and has been joined by modern buildings such as the Institute for Contemporary Art and the Boston Convention Center. But, despite change, the influences of Irish immigrants are still visible and palpable.

T - identification of public transport lines in Boston

T-Net

Boston is one of the few big cities in the United States to explore on foot. A red stripe on the pavement, the Freedom Trail, leads to the important historical sights. In addition, there is the metro (called "T" by the inhabitants of Boston) and a good bus network, which are operated by the MBTA.

There are two different types of tickets: The CharlieTicket (once usable only) and the CharlieCard (chargeable). The charterCard is cheaper than the ticket. The CharlieCard is only available at the info desk (not at the machine).

On the street

Unlike the rest of the US, Boston is a very unfriendly city for motorists. The city highways were moved underground during the Big Dig. There is very little parking in the city center, and if that is the case, parking fees are very high. The motorway to the airport is also subject to tolls. It is therefore best to take advantage of the well developed local transport or explore the city center on foot.

By bus

Boston has a dense bus network with regular departures. The journey costs $1.70 (CharlieCard), or $2 (CharlieTicket), no matter how long the journey is. The best way to buy the CharlieCard is at every T-station. This is a rechargeable card that you can just hold onto a driver's reader.

Part of the bus lines (Silver Line) is designed as a BRT (Bus Rapid Transit) system with its own lanes and tunnels, making them significantly faster than normal road traffic.

subway

The Boston Metro, officially called "T", runs through the city in all directions. It dates back to the early 1980s, and unfortunately you can see it. Unlike metro lines in Europe or Asia, there seems to have been no investment in further development since construction. The trains (like many subway lines in the USA) seem outdated and come down. They're very smuggling in places. The underground stations are dirty, accessible and inaccessible.

The lines are marked with colors ("Red Line", "Orange Line", etc.). Here you can also use the CharlieTicket or CharlieCard (see "buses"). The trip costs $2.25, or $2.75, no matter how long the journey is.

city

Commonwealth Avenue tram to Boston College

There is also the tram, which is known as the Green Line. All trams run between Lechmere and Copley in a tunnel under the city center (similar to several major cities in West Germany), then they divide into four different branches (B, C, D, E) and drive in the outlying districts above ground.

ferry

MBTA also operates four ferry lines in the Boston harbor area.

taxi

Taxi is available throughout the city, especially in the relevant places, such as the airport or near train stations. You can also use the private service providers Uber or Lyft. As is now the case throughout the United States, these are widely used and offer fares at a lower rate than taxi fares. Many drivers are still on their way to downtown late in the evening.

By bicycle

Boston is very bike friendly. There is a track on the streets reserved for cyclists only. Moreover, Boston is not particularly mountainous.

typical Hubway station

In addition to the usual bicycle rental possibilities, Boston with Hubway has a rental system with fixed locations for everyone (similar to the Call-a-Bike system in Germany). Here you need a credit card to make your booking at the machines, you pay $6 for 24 hours or $12 for three days and can use a bike for a maximum of 30 minutes anywhere within this time and return to each station. For longer usage at the piece, additional charges are added. This makes renting several hours (i.e. for bicycle tours outside the station area) unattractive. From 2 minutes after a successful return the next bike can be rented. Note: When used, a deposit of USD 101 per bicycle is blocked on the credit card! The station density is medium and the area covered includes Boston, Brookline, Cambridge and Somerville. At each station there is a road map with bike paths and all the stops so that you can plan longer tours of the city, including bike changes.

A credit card allows you to rent a maximum of two bicycles. So groups should have multiple credit cards.

Note: when returning at the station, make sure that the bike clicks correctly (first yellow, then green light and confirmatory tone), otherwise the bike is considered not to have been returned and it can be quite expensive. Sometimes it helps to lift the bicycle at the back.

Visitors should buy the GoBoston Card, saving them a lot of money and possibly long waiting times. In particular, the Six Flags over New England amusement park in Springfield, worth its money!

The crime rate in Boston is low compared to other American metropolises. In the southern part of the city, there are less safe neighborhoods like Roxbury and Dorchester, but tourists are unlikely to get lost.

Bostonians are usually very friendly and are happy to help tourists. In that sense, there is no fear and ask a passerby if, for example, you do not know how to get where!

It is unusual to wait as a pedestrian at the traffic lights. If you don't have a car, or if the cars are just a few meters from the traffic lights, you just go red.

When you call a port, you must dial the area code and the seven-digit number. If you need the telephone information, you can reach it under "411".
