Booze Map Shows Beacon Hill Light on Bars

The concentration of bars on Beacon Hill is much lower than other central Boston neighborhoods, according to Tim Wallace's amazing maps of liquor licenses and distance to liquor in the Boston area.

What do you think? Are there enough places on the Hill to socialize over a glass of wine?  Let us know in our poll below. 

For a discussion of the methods and meanings of the maps, please visit Wallace's blog, Bostonography, which explains things much better than I can.

These maps are only for restaurants and bars holding liquor licenses. They do not include packies, convenience stores and grocery stories that sell alcohol.
