The typical apartment sizes in the core neighborhoods of Boston such as the North End are in the 300 - 400 sq ft range. Keep that in mind when downsizing from a much larger apartment in the 'burbs. So if you have an indoor cat that is used to running across a larger area to let off energy.. expect it to vent its frustration by yowling in the night. One thing I noticed neighbors do in buildings -- with separate building doors -- is to let their cats out at night to roam in the corridors. Some of my buddies who were 6+ feet tall would not show up to hang out as much at my place because the smaller space was uncomfortable for them to monkey around.

Yeah. They are more compartments than apartments. Over priced and not that well maintained.

No mention of Dorchester? Its probably the cheapest neighborhood in Boston. While the parts bordering Mattapan are sketchy, anywhere near I-93 has been gentrified. Plus there's tons of street parking.

Any chance you can make a video on demystifying "The T"? I commute to Boston a handful of times per month and I always end up driving because I find the MBTA's fare options to be entirely opaque. CharlieTicket, CharlieCard, LinkPass, mTicket, monthly pass, commuter rail pass, commuter rail Zone upgrades, etc. I have absolutely no idea what I am doing and every time I try to price out a month's worth of trips (consisting of commuter rail, subway, and occasionally bus) it ends up being hundreds of dollars more than the cost of my monthly car payment, gas, and insurance. Send help.

For the same price as a 300 sq ft studio on Beacon, I picked up a 2 bedroom in Roxbury and can walk to work. Yeah, not much in nightlife or anything, but I can uber a few minutes downtown if I want.

@@victoriamalova1775 It's a bit rough in places but gentrifying quickly as it's so close to the core city/ hospitals. It's certainly not super dangerous as no where in Boston is these days (except Mass and Cass)

When discussing Boston they always talk about outlying neighborhoods, but what is downtown Boston like ?
@BreakingDownBoston
@BreakingDownBoston 4 ай бұрын
Good question! I probably need to make a single video for what is zoned as “Downtown” Boston. Many outsiders would probably consider Beacon Hill to be part of “downtown” since the neighborhood is surrounded by skyscrapers, even though it is its own neighborhood.

Great question! Historically the South End or Fort Point (Seaport area). However, I believe artists have moved from those areas, perhaps not all… unfortunately I’m not aware of a specific area.
