Craigs List Boston -- What's It About?

Boston is one of the top travel and living destinations in the US with many attractions, but is it a place "where everybody knows your name" like at the famous Beacon Hill bar known locally as the Bull and Finch pub but nationally as the Cheers bar where Cliff Claven opined endlessly on trivia and where Sam Malone was after all the hotties?

What is Craigs List Boston? It is a popular, all-in-one portal site for Bostonians, or those looking to get information on jobs, housing, and community happenings for the Boston area. The Craigs List Boston website is basically an online community where you can browse information on various categories, which I’ll give momentarily. (There’s also the very popular boston.craigslist.org/ers page for the more carnally minded shall we say!?:))

In the different categories offered, you can search Craigs List Boston for jobs, housing info, community information, personals (like the boston.craigslist.org/ers page), for sale category, resumes, discussion forums, services, and "gigs." There is also an event calendar as well as a calendar posted, which can be useful for keeping abreast of what’s happening in the greater Boston area. This is one of the first ever features of Craigs List Boston -- which mirrored the original craig’s list in San Francisco. Each major category has an abundance of major items as well. (For what it’s worth, there are also city hyperlinks for all over the US, Canada and even the world too.) Cities are sorted by both states but also by major US cities -- the same for Europe and around the world -- there’s even a Craigs List Turkey (as in the country), believe it or not.

One of the nice things about Craigs List Boston, or any of the Craig’s List sites, is that the major city is usually divided up by geographical local. For example, for Boston Craigs List, you can find listings for all the above mention categories for not just Boston at large, but for the Northwest/Merrimack area, the Metro West area, the South Shore part of Boston, as well as the city hub of Boston, Cambridge and Brookline.

Let’s talk briefly on how to use Craigs List Boston most effectively. If you’re looking for housing information, for example, you’d go to the Craigs List Boston on housing info, choose your specific area like South Shore, and you’d find info to search on apartments, shared rooms, vacation rentals, real estate for sale in the South Shore area, parking and storage information, even housing swapping.

Under Craigs List Boston jobs, you’ll find jobs listed by categories like government, education, legal/paralegal, medical/health, etc. (There are far too many to list here.) You can, of course, post stuff too. I posted my resume there and found a high-paying marketing manager position for a major software company.

The discussion forums are popular too, ranging with discussion threads on everything from film and food and erotic services (like those found at boston.craigslist.org/ers) to travel and politics.

Yes, Craigs List Boston is a great, comprehensive place for a spate of info searching. One thing worth mentioning is that basically and all the other craigs lists have the same capabilities and all-in-one portal site like NH craigs list, craigs list monterey, craigs list NJ (New Jersey), rhode island craigs list, craigs list alaska, craigs list pittsburgh, and craigs list MN (Minnesota). Of course, there a lot more, but that should give you an idea of what’s out there.

In essence, the Craigs List Boston website pages at Craig’s List is a great resource for almost everyone. The one in Craigs List Boston is obviously specific to the greater Boston area just as the NH craigs list is specific to New Hampshire. It’s a great resource for the casual online browser to the job seeker to the person trying to buy or sell something, and should be a part of your online activity.
