Sometimes I wonder if anyone who gives Central Scare a 5 star review actually... lives in Central Scare. Visiting Central warrants MAYBE a 4 star rating, but living there? Not so awesome. After moving…

Central Square loses a star for sketchiness, although I'll give back half since Cambridgeport Saloon closed. Of course, having a boarded up old bar in your neighborhood is pretty sketchy, so I'll take…
