I give Archie's the edge. The aoli there takes it over the edge.

There are problems unique to neighborhoods and streets within Dorchester. And to make geographically narrowly defined issues applicable to the broader space isn't sensible if you have any understanding of Dorchester at all.
You're bringing up weird data points that actually don't support your argument. Kids in Dorchester can register for schools in multiple neighborhoods outside of Dorchester, police precincts cover different areas of Dorchester (meaning you can't go into THE Dorchester PD HQ, you go into a precinct), and firestations are unique to even smaller precincts than the police. There's like 3 within a half mile of me.

There's actually a decent amount of nerf darts.

The residential areas of Boston are busy. The less residential or concentrated residential areas that are busier are Beacon Hill and Charlestown by the monument.
I live in Dorchester and the Melville Park, Savin Hill, Lower Mills, and Ashmont (Hill and Adams) areas all great.

Right, so the context is uneven because unlike things are being merged into like things. It's formulaically analyzing unlike places for comparison.
You can literally look at crime maps and discern this with little ambiguity. Same for murders.
You could draw a line down dot ave and have a vastly different result. The difference is that without understanding the size of the neighborhood, and the neighborhoods within it, the broad brush strokes aren't representative of the size and population of Dorchester nor does it represent each of the neighborhoods it's comprised of.

Dorchester has roughly the same size population of Cambridge, and is as large as the next three neighborhoods of Boston combined.
The idea of broad brush strokes on such a large and diverse neighborhood is laughably out of touch.

Been living in Dorchester for 5 years and have yet to find random guns on the side of the road.
But sure it could happen. Does it happen? It can/could, but I wouldn't be so general in saying it does happen in Dorchester. I don't think I know anyone that has found a glock just sitting on the side of the road.

Read the sidebar the mod linked. If you have young kids mixing in children's museum and aquarium are great. If they're older Freedom Trail.

Or 20. Currently looking at 39 minute delays on the Ashmont line.

Reply to Question about city terminology. by [deleted]
There are lots of neighborhoods in Dorchester, most of which are geographically appointed or based on streets. A lesser frequently used method is by parishes, but that was very prominent.
Dorchester is the size of Cambridge. It makes sense that there are equivalent neighborhood terms. I think Dorchester is as large as the next three largest neighborhoods combined.

Bathtub removal and replacing should be 1k and not much more than that.
A bathroom renovation would be 15k with change.
You need a plumber not a contractor.
You can also do this yourself, but plumbing the drain is frustrating if you haven't done it before.

I got some ankle high merril boots and they are still waterproof 5 years later.
The reality is unless you plan on putting them to frequent use, just get something that is warm, waterproof, and has good treads.
