What do you think would make Boston a better city?

It would be a better city if there were more jobs, cheaper housing and more programs to help people. I’m $28 above the poverty level and I can’t qualify for an apartment.

I think we need more friendly police foot patrols to curb some of the gun violence. We need more officers who look like us in the neighborhood.

They need to make the police more friendly. They ought to help people instead of messing with them. It would make things more peaceful.

More jobs for youth and more recreational activities. The youth need places to go and burn off energy.

Change all the public officials. They’re not doing the jobs they were elected to do.
