Hi everyone,

I am a new grad moving to boston next year. My job is in north waltham (12 min bus ride from the commuter line station) and I need help finding areas to live. Im 23 and I want to be as close to the downtown Boston as possible with walkable streets and nightlife (please dont tell me to live in waltham). I willl need my car as I have to travel for work so driving to work is possible, but i would love to have a train option. I am planning to have roomates so budget is less of a concern atp. I am planning to visit boston soon, but I would love to have some direction before I get there.

Please any reccomendations on places with:

Driving/train commute under an hour to 45 minutes. Additionally, parking a car (street parking vs parking garage)

As close as possible to downtown Boston

younger area with things to do, safe, etc.

Hii looking for a lease takeover for jan-aug 2027

The location is around Hynes Convention Center / fenway. Pretty close to fenway park and newbury street

6 min walk from hynes

Private room in a 3br/1bath for $1255 a month.
There is a closet in the room as well (i just dont use it)

There is 2 other roommates both male college students. Both are clean and friendly !

No pets allowed

Wont be furnished unless you want my bed + 2 shelfs (can have it for free)

Heat and water included
Electric split between the other 2 roommates

First, last month and security deposit

I have possibly qualified for a really nice 1b1b and I am under my current lease until summer 2027. The other apartment has move in date for end of this year so i am not sure how things would pan out. has anyone had any experience with getting a lease takeover and how that was? I am a little worried on how that would go. Im currently in a 450sqft lower level studio thats around 1600 a month and I feel like maybe that wasn't as much of a deal as I thought it was when i first got it. not to advertise my current apartment because nothing is set in stone but a early termination would be like 7k which i cannot do so I'm trying to gather myself in case things start moving in that direction.

Hello, I am looking to move to Boston in January. I need to secure housing before I get a job offer so that I am not in a rush!

I am a 25 year old women, I am only looking for other female roommates. I have a 3 year old pitbull mix, she is very sweet and loves new people. I have never lived in Boston, so I am not tied to a specific neighborhood as long as there is train access. I am not opposed to sharing a bathroom as long as you consider yourself a generally clean person. I can pay around $2,000 a month for rent.

I am also very open to suggestions on other websites I should use to find a roommate. As a women moving to a new city I would like a verified method of finding someone. I have the means to run background checks, but some people are creeps.

**If you are interested I am going to be in Boston at the end of October and would love to meet anyone also looking for a roommate in person!**

Available now
3 bed 1 bath apt unit in the heart of Allston
$2900/month
First and last month required
LL pays for water
Street parking
Laundry in basement
small pets negotiable

Don't e have any concrete yet, just really guaging real interest and fair price. There are not a lot of rentals in Princeton.

ISO weekday room rental in East Boston, North End, or Downtown Boston (Tues/Weds nights)

Hi everyone. I know I'm shooting for the stars here, but I'm looking for a room to rent in Boston for two nights a week – Tuesday and Wednesday nights.

I live in Rhode Island but work in Boston, and I'm hoping to find a recurring arrangement rather than rent a full-time apartment or pay for a hotel twice a week. Ideally, I'm looking for something in East Boston, North End, or Downtown Boston so I can be close to work.

I'm a working professional, quiet, clean, and respectful of shared spaces. I would just need a comfortable bedroom to sleep in and access to a bathroom – no meals or additional services needed. I'd ideally like to stay with another woman or a couple who has a spare bedroom and would be open to a consistent monthly arrangement.

Hi! My husband and I are looking for our first house in the Greater Boston area. He works in the city and that likely won’t change anytime soon. We’re currently in Worcester but the commute is too long.

We’re strongly considering Framingham or Mansfield area. Ideally his commute would be less than an hour off of one of the train lines. Budget is $700K and we would like to have a backyard with at least some privacy, no less than 1600 sq ft. We aren’t planning on having kids so good schools aren’t a priority.

We appreciate having access to different ethnic grocery stores.

What recs come to mind?
