Somerville underwent a colossal transformation around the turn of the 21st century. A huge revitalization effort began in the 1990s, and by 2006 Somerville was recognized as the best-run city in Massachusetts. Nowadays, the city is better known for its thriving artistic community and constant self-improvement efforts by citizens and government alike.
There is heavy emphasis on local businesses, which are spread around Somerville in various commercial squares rather than a centralized downtown—this gives folks lots of options when selecting an apartment. Much of the arts and leisure activity is centered around Davis Square, well known for its dining, nightlife, and music venues.
The community is generally quite walkable, and MBTA service makes it exceptionally easy to get to nearby downtown Boston. With the campuses of Harvard, MIT, and Tufts surrounding the city, Somerville is within arm’s reach of some of America’s finest universities.

161 Beacon , Apt 3
This apartment is a really good value for it's size and the area! Large rooms, spacious kitchen, huge back deck. You are 0.5 mi from Harvard Square, and 1 mile from both Porter and Central Squares. There is a bus route, (#83) that picks up directly across the street from the house that goes to Central Square. It also goes to Porter in the other direction, and picks up a block down the road. It is a quiet neighborhood and the house is well-maintained. Make sure to bring an air-conditioner...it gets really hot!!
