The soil of the New England region is in many parts not much suited for agriculture and today you won't find much farmland there. But back when it was still a colony people coming to New England either settled (mostly) in Boston or tried to make a living elsewhere in the area, which as all colonial areas was then mostly rural. Which of the two was 'better' is a matter of opinion and of how we are to understand your question in the first place. In terms of quality of life, urban and rural life differed but in their own way were equally harsh back then; in terms of fitness of the soil, New England is not much suited for commercial farming.
