Boston is one of the most competitive local markets in the country. In most categories the map pack is decided by review velocity, proximity to the searcher and how many strong neighborhood signals you have — which is why we build dedicated pages for areas like Back Bay, South Boston and Cambridge rather than one generic city page. Fighting spam listings is also a real lever here: removing two or three fake competitor listings can move you from page two into the top three.
