What is it like to live in Boston’s North End?

Discussing the pros and cons of living in the North End, this profile takes you through the neighborhood from the hustle of Hanover Street to the many historic landmarks.  The Boston Globe has the full story through the eyes of local residents and taking your through the transitions of the North End dynamic over the decades.

Key change as Boston rents head down

For the first time in six years, rents in Boston have fallen as housing supply starts to catch up to demand. In the fourth quarter of 2016, the average monthly rent for an apartment in Boston fell 1.7 percent, marking the first time rents have dropped since 2010. The Boston Herald has more on the new report that still has yet to ascertain whether the drop in prices is spread throughout the market or the most expensive apartments.
