Its funny, when I was in college everyone would tell you they were from Boston. There were people from Framingham who would tell you they were from “right outside” of Boston.
It got to be a joke.
Well, I tell out of state people I work “right outside Boston” because it is easier for them to visualize...but if people in state ask me where I live, I tell them I live halfway between 495 and 128...:)
They usually don’t know the name of the town...:)
Framingham...well, that is a little further outside Boston!
