So for young people not wanting to chance the 'gentrification lottery' you're describing with regard to their personal timeline, what you're proposing isn't reasonable.
- seibelj 10y agoIt is a lottery? Move where there is a subway stop and property is cheap. Allston, Somerville, Southie, even East Boston is coming around. It isn't fuckin rocket science
- eli_gottlieb 10y agoSomerville has been expensive for years. Our landlord has raised rent by $175/month over the past two years, so we're having to move to Medford.
