Oh so you’re gonna start building affordable housing so people can live in your community, right?? *hears crickets*
Nine new Boston-area districts want to join METCO, the state-funded desegregation program, its president said Tuesday.

To me they basically said we don’t have enough Blacks and Latinos let’s just drag them from Boston at 5am and let them be racial abused by people that don’t care to live by them. But okay cool?!?

It’s EXACTLY this. We want some color for our brochures but god no, you can’t actually be my neighbor.

I hope so. Revere grew by 20% and we have kids sitting on gym floors because we have no space in our schools. Time for Wellesley and Newton to carry the load.

Interesting do these 9 towns currently provide the state minimum of 10% affordable housing units now? That minimum has been a state requirement for 51 years. Albeit a toothless one causes as of 6/30/20 only 81(23%) towns met that minimum. 250 towns don't meet it!
