I am planning St. Patricks 2009. Please help if you know S. Boston.?

Question

Where is a decent area to stay to be close to the Parade route? I have heard Southie can be a rough place and I would like to know which areas to stay away from.

Answer 1

I know downtown isn't too bad.  However, you'll pay a friggin arm and leg to stay there.  But, overall it's pretty safe.  Good luck.  And lucky you, hope you have a blast.
