A small town offering the best of both worlds

Suburban Historic Diverse Public Transportation

Located at the southernmost tip of the city of Boston, Hyde Park is a large neighborhood that feels more like a small town than a part of a massive metropolis.

What is it like to live in Hyde Park? Well, the diverse rental market features a wide selection of apartments and condos, often being quite affordable compared to other areas of the city. Much of the community’s landscape is filled with parks, nature preserves, playgrounds, and golf courses, ensuring that everyone has access to a lush greenspace within walking distance.
