I have visited Cambridge on many occasions and love the city. I would move there in a heartbeat, but while I have a good income, there’s no way I can afford the real estate market there. People who live there should feel blessed.
I was born in and spent most of my youth in Cambridge. Harvard Yard was my playground and the Christmas Revels at Sanders Theatre was a treat at holiday time. Great place to live and grow up to.
i guess im asking randomly but does someone know a way to log back into an instagram account? I stupidly lost the login password. I appreciate any help you can give me!
It"s very nice and eclectic, but Real estate and renting are extremely expensive! I live in Medford which is North West of Cambridge. Even here, real estate is getting very expensive. I'm glad I bought a house in Medford when it was affordable!!
Thank you for this. I love Cambridge. I have visited 4 times already this year from Maryland. I would love to move there, but the rent prices are insane. I’ll keep looking.
I’m from Napa, California, and I just moved to Cambridgeport! I found a room to rent for $820, and I’m attending Boston University on a scholarship. I hoped to find housing in Brookline, but I couldn’t find anything in time or reasonably priced until I found something in Cambridgeport. It was this, Southie, or Dorchester… 😅 I feel like I made the best choice!
Fun video. I worked on Brattle Street and lived a block from the Mt. Auburn Hospital. The walk from work to home was through the most unbelievable neighborhood of old beautiful museum quality homes.
I love that neighborhood. I grew up just outside Central SQ. I used to work on Mt Auburn street right across from the cemetery in the white office building. Sometimes I would walk from work to Harvard Square to catch the red line. You're right it was a beautiful walk. I live in Manchester by the Sea now but Cambridge will always be my true home.
If I saw this video 10 years ago, I would agree with it all. What a great place this was to live in for so many years. But as you slightly touched upon, it is too crowded now. Its been overdeveloped. Its now just an extension of Boston and has lost most of it s wonderful neighborhood family feel. Sad. =(
great video! so many people dont realize how diverse cambridge is, theres so much going on and its much more 3d that just being an ivy league college city. i grew up here and i really miss it
I grew up there too. Went to the Morse School and then to Cambridge Rindge and Latin. I live on Cape Ann now but Cambridge will always be my true home.
Im still learning about Massachusetts but I started look at the state for MIT😍 I’m praying God to get there I love this institute and of course Massachusetts❤
👌↗Indeed; it's a nice and decent walk from Cambridge to Boston for some exercise and or to enjoy the scenery and or for different reasons persons choose to walk or take the public transportation or ride by bike or car ↗ I've walked to Cambridge from Boston enjoying the walk and or the scenery along the way while also in Cambridge are some nice places to eat some good 😋 tasty foods and or to do some shopping of different kinds; I love the Harvard Square area in Cambridge they have good fast foods restaurants, clothing and shoe stores and some neat and awesome stores persons can shop at for their home goods.😘
The winters do vary. This past winter, I think it only snowed a handful of times, and did we even have a snowstorm? Can’t remember. All that said, as some Scandinavians, “there’s no such thing as bad weather, just bad clothes.” Which essentially means, that with the right kinds of clothes and boots, you’ll be fine.
Thanks for the informative video. I'll be coming there next year for a year at Harvard. Where is the best place to live in Cambridge? Can you talk a little bit about rental fees?
Hi there. Best place to live in Cambridge? That makes for a lively debate :) ! I do not do rentals. Just sales. Reach out to my colleague Deb Cantrell at Compass for assistance with rentals. Good luck to you!
Thanks Charles. You may be preaching to a believer here, but what would you say are the advantages of Cambridge over Boston? If I need to get out to Waltham frequently, what better area than Porter Square with its commuter rail line is there? Danke.
Cambridge is smaller and has more greenery than Boston. And generally speaking it is easier to park in Cambridge. Not sure there is an easy commute to Waltham from Cambridge.
