I've been definitely seeing more and more startups popping up (or maybe I hear them in the news more) coming from Boston. But I'm not entirely sure if Tech Crunch's conclusion is sound. You can see from the past five year data graph that NYC's investment is quite high but all of sudden there is a dip this year. Boston-area startups is "overtaking" the pace of NYC not because of a boom in Boston but rather a dull in NYC.

The 2018 numbers are YTD though. Both cities seem like they're on track to do as well or better than they did in 2017 assuming that funding doesn't tend to be significantly front-loaded toward the beginning of the year (which might be the case – I honestly don't know).
