Here at Rental Beast, we love Boston! It’s a historic center with excellent access to jobs, education, and some world-class entertainment. Also, our Headquarters are right across the Charles River in Somerville (what’s more to love?) However, housing in Boston doesn’t come cheap. Rent is at an all-time high in Boston and rivaling other notoriously pricy coastal metropolises like New York and San Francisco. In September of 2019, RentCafe reported the average rent in Boston is a whopping $3,545, making it the 4th most expensive place to rent in the US.
