Though remember that zip code doesn’t necessarily correspond exactly to tax districts. For example, sales tax here in Texas can be levied by the state, county, city, school district and transportation district. I pay 7.125%, 5% going to the state, 1% to the county, 1/8% to the school district, but someone living in this county but not in this school district wouldn’t pay that last eighth.

It probably won’t change much, and I have no idea how Boston and Massachusetts levy sales tax, but it’s something to keep in mind.
