To sample the authentic cultural richness and diversity of Boston, a visit to Mission Hill is imperative. The neighborhood, in fact, is a real melting pot of heritages and backgrounds – from different ethnicities to polar-opposite architectural styles.

Old meets new with striking results, in Mission Hill, and its inclusive and varied community makes this area one of the most interesting in the whole city. Situated just one mile from Downtown Boston, Mission Hill is home to residents of African American and Latino heritage, as well as many students who enjoy its exciting vibe and its closeness and convenience to several schools and colleges.

Recently, the area has undergone several updates and improvements, including the addition of housing for mixed-income residents, the expansion and support of businesses on Tremont Street and Huntington Avenue, and the renovation of One Brigham Circle.

African and Latin-American inspired cuisines are offered by the area’s many eateries, and shopping lovers will also be able to satisfy their thirst for unique items and souvenirs in the many independent stores that Mission Hills is home to.
