    "Very dog friendly neighborhood with access to two main public parks and more beyond the neighborhood. The Boston Commons have a dog community area for their human owners. Most shops on Charles street put out dog treats and dog water bowls during the warmer months. Beacon Hill appreciate well behaved and trained dogs. Don't forget to pick after your dog poo 'cause the neighbors do their part to keep the neighborhood clean for locals and tourists. We frown upon bad dog owners. "

    "Beacon Hill is a historic neighborhood of Boston, Massachusetts. Today, Beacon Hill is regarded as one of the most desirable neighborhoods in Boston. It is predominantly residential, known for old Federal style brick row houses with beautiful doors, decorative iron work, brick sidewalks, narrow streets, and gas lamps. This cozy enclave, filled with nearly 10,000 people, is more like a village than an anonymous city. It has a rich community life, with neighbors knowing neighbors and everyone meeting on the Hill's commercial streets and at its myriad activities. Restaurants, antique shops and grocery stores are located on Charles Street and Cambridge St. "
