Even though I'm a life long resident, I never knew Boston had a city flag until know. Can't say I've ever seen it fly anywhere.
It's flown at many public buildings, and the seal adorns a lot of ornamental cast iron. The Boston Athletic Association, sponsor of the Marathon, chose the same colors of cerulean and gold.
I’ve kinda bounced around a couple of places up here in NY. The City of Rochester has an official flag, but it’s not the one you’ll see everywhere from city buildings to tote bags. Rochesterians have a sense of pride for the city, and the flag is quite attractive besides reflecting a lot of the city’s history:
Rochester’s suburb Greece is where I have spent most of my time here along with Irondequoit. Both are rather disappointing boilerplate flags with a seal on a white background. Irondequoit added a border but it doesn’t do much for the flag.
This is actually the first time I've ever looked at Milwaukee's flag. Nautical, industrial, historical Indian settlement, Christianity, all represented. No beer, though. Not sure why there's a spaceship with a surprised dude hovering in the top right quadrant, though.
Tell me that your flag was designed by committee without telling me that is was designed by committee.
My town doesn't have an official flag, we do have a nice logo here though.
I wasn't aware that any cities had official flags. Logos, yes, but flags? I've lived around the country and can't say I've ever seen one. Maybe I just never noticed.

You may not have ever noticed, because every city I've ever lived in (and it's a lot of cities) has had a city flag.
What I'm learning from this thread is that a lot of them are hideous!
