GET A FEEL FOR THE CITY

Life in Boston.

Boston is a compact university and biotech city where a large student and postgraduate population keeps the shared-housing market busy, especially around September lease turnovers. Allston, Brighton and Jamaica Plain are classic room-rental areas, while Cambridge and Somerville across the Charles River are popular with researchers and tech workers. The MBTA subway and commuter rail connect the metro area, and Logan Airport is minutes from downtown.
