    "Great area! Its mostly quiet and you have access to all Boston has to offer. There are frequent local events outside in the summer and a lot of clubs and thing to do indoors in winter. The city center is small but it has the essentials and some nice cafes. The BBQ place does a great brunch! Plus you have ocean access! The ocean micro-climate in Winthrop means warmer winters and cooler in the summers. Nothing in life is perfect, but Winthrop comes close! "

    "Commute would be better if we got a discount on the tolls. I go though Chelsea, Everett, Charlestown to get to work at TD Garden. I come home the same way which is so out of my way. To pay the Tolls it’s like another big bill on my hands. I love living in Winthrop but I’ll probably move out because of the toll’s. "
