Agreeing on a Neighborhood with Your Boston Roommates

The City of Boston website is an excellent resource for finding more information on Boston’s distinct neighborhoods. This website is easy to navigate and provides a wealth of information on the 21 neighborhoods which comprise Boston. This website contains brief summaries for each neighborhood. There is also a more detailed page for each neighborhood with information such as location of fire stations, police stations, public schools, libraries, community centers and neighborhood coordinators.

The City of Boston website can be used to help Boston roommates narrow down there search but visiting the neighborhoods is also recommended. Try to visit each neighborhood you and your roommates are considering before you begin apartment hunting to help minimize the number of options. This will make the decision making process much less complex.
