City Departments
Boston was first incorporated as a town in 1630, and later as a city in 1822. Although City Government played a major role in Boston's development, the real spirit lies in the diverse and vibrant neighborhoods of the City. Today, the City is governed by the Mayor and the City Council with the assistance of various departments, agencies and commissions.
