I haven't been to Boston metro in ages but that's how I remember that area too. Here's what the Wikipedia entry for Hingham has to say about its demographics:
The racial makeup of the town was 97.5% White, 0.40% Black or African American, 0.04% Native American, 0.88% Asian, 0.02% Pacific Islander, 0.22% from other races, and 0.95% from two or more races. Hispanic or Latino of any race were 0.75% of the population.[33]
How awful. They are probably intending to use the phones to text each other about federalism and liberty and stuff. I suspected them all along, because they are responsible for all of the oppression going on in this world. And now they have iPhones!
Is, or was?
It reminds me of that case in NJ where a rich lawyer got shot dead in front of his wife in a parking lot, and everyone was shocked because it was an "upscale mall".
If the vibrancy index hits the sweet spot, there are no nice areas - that the place you got killed was "upscale" really doesn't matter.
But it is only 5 minutes by car from Quincy, which has a big drug problem.
Oddly enough, Quincy is mostly Asian.
Maybe 10 minutes by car from Dorchester, which DOES have a “Yout” Gang problem.
They’ll also no doubt use the phones in their job searches. That was what was probably preventing them from finding work. That and racism.
Hingham is 98% white & quite wealthy....most likely it was spoiled local youth.
It still “is”, but the youts have CARS!
There is no need to stay in the hood if the pickings elsewhere are better.
I stand corrected...black teenagers per the local Hingham Patch...

Thanks. I got it now.
:)
Wouldn’t these phones be automatically reported stolen and have their location traced as soon as they go online?
Were they Obama’s sons and daughters?? Need I ask...REALY?
Yes, the Short Hill Malls and it is an upscale mall in an ‘exclusive’ area. The murderers were from Newark - where else? Which is not far away.
Interesting you should mention it. I was just thinking of this horrendous case which was about two years ago at Christmas time.
No, there are no safe areas.
