    About Boston  
    City Profile
    Covering just 46 square miles, or 119 square kilometres, is Boston, the capital city of the State of Massachusetts. Nestled on Massachusetts Bay, an offshoot of the Atlantic, Boston is today a busy metropolis with a population of 5.6million (1998), of which 1.6 million are resident in the central part of the City. Boston has been home to immigrants from all over the world, virtually from about 1800, when it's population was just a few thousand. By the turn of the 20th century the population had grown to half a million, of which more than half were Irish, and the balance split between Canadians and Europeans.
