NEIGHBORHOODS > JAMAICA PLAIN


One of the city’s most diverse areas, “JP” contains thriving Latino, African-American, Irish and gay communities that mingle within its ample green space—including Arnold Arboretum and the Jamaica Pond area—and among main drag Centre Street’s restaurants, bars and shops. Once a country resort for Boston Brahmins, it teems with 19th century mansions while its current-day affordability attracts a younger generation of hipsters, artists and musicians.
