Travelers who like Boston better than Philadelphia, I guess. There seem to be more of them, which at least makes them more mainstream than the people who like Philly if you define "mainstream" in part as being related to the preferences and values of a plurality of people.
This can't be surprising to anyone: Boston is cute, genteel, and upscale. Philly by comparison is generally less cute, less genteel, and less upscale; tougher. I personally like Philadelphia better, in part for these reasons, but then my city preferences are not so mainstream.
In any event, it doesn't really matter. Whether mainstream or not, more people seem to like Boston than Philly. Not a shocking revelation.
