The Puritans established a colony in the Americas primarily to seek religious freedom and create a community governed by their strict interpretations of Christianity. Discontent with the Church of England's practices, they aimed to build a society based on their beliefs and values, free from persecution. The Massachusetts Bay Colony, founded in 1630, served as a model for their vision of a "city upon a hill," embodying their ideals of moral purity and communal responsibility.
The Puritans didn't go to Plymouth, they went to what is now Massachusetts Bay colony. They founded Plymouth, MA in 1620. Named after Plymouth, Devon, England, from whence the Mayflower set sail, it is the oldest continuously populated English settlement in the modern US.

The group was called the Pilgrims. They were separatist Puritans who sailed on the Mayflower in 1620 to escape religious persecution in England and establish a colony in what is now modern-day Massachusetts.

In 1620, the Mayflower set sail to America, hosting Puritans who aimed to establish a new, separate colony from the others. This colony was later named the Plymouth Colony because they landed on a land-form which was named Plymouth Rock (the rock can now be seen in Plymouth, Massachusetts).
The group that set sail on the Mayflower in 1620 was primarily composed of a congregation of English Puritans known as the Pilgrims. They sought religious freedom and a new life in the New World. Alongside them were other settlers, often referred to as "strangers," who were also seeking opportunities in America. Together, they established the Plymouth Colony in present-day Massachusetts.
The Puritans set sail for America in September 1620. They traveled aboard the Mayflower, leaving England to seek religious freedom in the New World. Their journey began in Plymouth, England, and they arrived in what is now Massachusetts in November 1620.
Perhaps you are referring to the Massachusetts Bay colony, which did have a settlement in and around what is Boston today. This group of colonists, led by John Winthrop, were Puritans, and their religion was discriminated against in England. They wanted to establish a colony that would give them the right to worship, and to set up a city that would be an example to others, a light to the nations. Their goal when they arrived in 1630 was to demonstrate that their colony could be godly and still be prosperous and successful.
