BOSTON (MANCHESTER) MA DMA
Boston is the capital of and the largest
city in Massachusetts. The Boston
(Manchester) DMA stretches from
Nantucket Island and Cape Cod as far
north as Manchester, New Hampshire
and includes Windham County,
Vermont. The population within the
DMA reached 6,422,417 in 2013 and is
expected to grow by 2.5% by 2018.
Although the Hispanic population of the
Boston DMA is less than 10% of the
total, its growth rate has been significant,
increasing more than 62% between
2000 and 2013. Over the next five years
it is forecast to grow another 14%
bringing the Hispanic population to just
over 646,000 individuals. 55% of the
Hispanics in this region hail from Puerto
Rico and the Dominican Republic.
Roughly 13% claim Mexico as their
country of origin.
The Asian population is two-thirds the
size of the Hispanic population and is
growing at a rate similar to that of the
Hispanics and will exceed 432,000 by
the year 2018.
The city of Boston has one of the highest
costs of living in the U.S., yet the Socio-
economic Status of the area shows
significant strength and diversity
primarily due to the high concentration of
colleges and universities. Institutions of
higher learning contribute as much as
$4.8 billion annually to the Boston
economy.
One of the best known sporting events in
Boston is the Marathon, the world’s
oldest annual marathon run. Following
the bombing of bystanders in 2013,
Boston residents have banded together
under the motto “Boston Strong”.
