And with that, we are done with Roslindale and West Roxbury and we're moving right along! If you didn't get to see all of the stores in this area, here's a map of the area and the stores we saw.
Coming Up Next
Perhaps the geographically largest Boston neighborhood is Dorchester, which tends to be a little more urban than the neighborhoods to its west. It has a lot of sub-communities, and small business districts that form their own neighborhoods like Ashmont, Neponset, Grove Hall, Upham's Corner, and others. But they together form Dorchester in the southeastern part of the city. Dorchester is one of the lower-income neighborhoods of Boston, and has several immigrant communities including from Vietnam, the Caribbean, and Latin America. As such, there's a lot of diversity in the supermarkets, and we'll see quite a few Asian supermarkets in the eastern part, Latin stores in the northwestern section, and an interesting mix of mainstream supermarkets throughout. We'll spend about three weeks here in Dorchester, starting in the southwestern part of the neighborhood at the southern end of Franklin Park, home to Boston's Zoo, and traveling out east to the coast, then back inland via Fields Corner and ending in the northwestern corner near the north end of Franklin Park. So come back tomorrow to start with a small independent store on Blue Hill Avenue!
