Boston is the capital of Massachusetts, and is one of the oldest cities in the United States. On top of that, Massachusetts was the first state in the USA to officially legalize same-sex marriage as far back as 2004. Despite its extremely liberal attitude towards the LGBTQ community, the Massachusetts capital does not have a specific gay district that is quite as robust as those found in other American cities such as San Francisco or Chicago. That said, plenty of gay life can be found on and around Tremont Street in the South End quarter of the city.
