Diamond City

Diamond City is a crucial location in the game, filled with secrets, curiosities, and quests at every corner. While the town itself is not very large, you can take on a dozen or so main and side quests, restock your supplies, and even purchase a house here.

After completing one of the main plotlines (all the quests for one of the factions), you can meet representatives of that faction in town, and the flags on flagpoles will also change.

As you visit Diamond City at different points in the storyline, you can bear witness to several situations that kick-off side quests.

If you’re in Diamond City around Christmas or Halloween, you’ll get to see the market place all decorated for the occasion.

There are four bases situated around the market place, just like in baseball. If you can run around fast enough, you’ll be rewarded with an additional achievement.

Two message boards are located in Diamond City: one to the left of the Swatters [17] and the other in Dougout [21]. These message boards allow you to receive random quests, such as eliminating groups of enemies like super mutants or gunners.
