Is cathair i Stáit Aontaithe Mheiriceá í Bostún (Béarla: Boston). Is í príomhchathair Stát Massachusetts í agus is í an chathair is mó sa stát í freisin; is í freisin príomhchathair neamhoifigiúil an réigiúin Sasana Nua í.

Tá Bostún ar cheann de na cathracha is sine agus is saibhre sa tír. Chomh maith leis sin, is áit thábhachtach í freisin i gcúrsaí cultúrtha agus staire. Bhí Bostún i lár an aonaigh ó thaobh chuid mhaith dena mhór-eachtraí i gCogadh Réabhlóideach Mheiriceá - an Sléacht i mBostún, Cóisir Tae Bhostúin, Cath Bunker Hill agus Léigear Bhostúin.

Tá an chathair suite i lár an réigiúin Mórcheantar Bhostúin (Greater Boston), i measc na gcathracha eile Cambridge, Brookline, Quincy agus Newton. I mBéarla, tugtar an t-ainm Bostonians ar na daoine atá ina gcónaí san áit seo.
