Living in BostonLiving in Boston• Allston/Brighton
– 20 minute bike ride to MIT Sloan, long T commute– Tons of students and young families– Pricey but for Boston, less expensive
• Back Bay– Long T commute, shorter bus commute, and walkable– Cultural mecca– Quaint lovely neighborhood
• Beacon Hill– Breezy commute on Red line, or walk– Fabulous quaint old neighborhood– Parking impossible
• Kenmore/Fenway– Easy bike or bus, longer T commute– Lower rents and often heat included– Close to Back Bay, but not the quaintest neighborhood itself
