I live in Boston. It's known for it's loud, drunken Irish population, Sox, Celts, Bruins, Sam Adams brewery, Dropkick Murphys, and the plethora of American history that it holds. And Boston Baked Beans? Though I was never really into those..

Great place to be, that Boston.

I live in Montreal where the drinking age is 18 and we're known for drunk Bostonians, especially at March break. PS: I do love Boston, just not drunk teenagers.

Don't forget your famous market (Quincy, not the other one)! Everything is steeped in history there.

I live in a river town called Bullhead City. The Colorado River is our lifeblood. On the Nevada side of the river, is Laughlin, which is known for its casinos. "Little Vegas."

I live in Knoxville and it isn't known for much. Really its only claim to fame is proximity to the Great Smoky Mountains. I love the mountains and the low cost-of-living but sometimes wish it had more to offer.

grungy, flannel-wearing, hybrid-driving environmentalists; uptight, condo-residing, conservative young professionals; the original Starbucks, Costco, Amazon, and Microsoft; Kurt Cobain, my man Jimi Hendrix, Quincy Jones. Weather most of the time: 57 degrees and drizzly. The cost of living is pretty ridiculous, but it makes up for it in natural beauty. Guesses?

i also rep Allston, which is right outside Boston and a pretty great place to be if you're a college student. Known for its numerous bars, frat houses, and the large rats that live in the garbage heaps. Also possibly for its large selection of vegan/vegetarian restaurants?
