Welcome to Boston ...So far, we found very little information about Boston. The little that we've found leads us believe that the community is historic.<1> We've added Boston to our Gazetteer with the hope that we can develop more information. If you can help us with Boston, please Contact Us. Boston would have been located within present day Baca County<2>. Since we don't have the location of Boston, we have used what we believe to be its closest cemetery as an estimate. While we don't have a date for the founding of Boston, you might consider that their post office opened in 1887. Time Zone: The area where Boston was located is in the Mountain Time Zone (MST/MDT) and observes daylight saving time Note: If you travel south from Boston (for example, toward Keyes (OK)), you will leave Mountain Time and cross into the Central Time Zone (CST/CDT). Boston would have been located in the (719) area code.
