As someone who lives in Kendall Square and studies at MIT, I would say that, in spite of the amount of brains, Cambridge and the whole Boston area are a terrible place to live, with few opportunities for recreation and a horrible weather...
- techiferous 13y agoCambridge is a wonderful place to live: extremely walkable, pretty architecture, good food, plenty to do, tolerant social atmosphere, very tech-friendly. Not sure if it's fair to call Cambridge/Boston a "terrible" place to live. I would say that the weather and recreation opportunities aren't as good as in some other locations of the country, so you have a point there.
- JayNeely 13y agoKendall Square itself isn't the most residential area, but you're a subway stop away from a ton of nightlife & live music in Central Square. One stop further and Harvard Square has an active city events scene (Mayfair, Book Festival, Bastille Day) + a ton of shops & restaurants. Just over the river you have the Esplanade, with regular concerts, movie nights, and festivals. And that's all within a mile or so. What kind of recreation are you looking for?
- ricw 13y agoHorrible weather? You should check out the uk.. It's beautiful, yet windy, in Boston in comparison.
