Medford, MA Apartments for Rent

Located just six miles northwest of downtown Boston on the Mystic River, Medford combines historic architecture with contemporary living. Founded in 1630, this city of nearly 60,000 residents is home to Tufts University and significant historical sites, including the Royall House and Slave Quarters museum. Residents benefit from comprehensive public transit access via the MBTA, with the Wellington Station on the Orange Line and the recently opened Medford/Tufts and Ball Square stations on the Green Line Extension providing direct routes to Boston.

Medford's neighborhoods showcase the city's architectural heritage, from Victorian-era homes to modern developments. The 2,060-acre Middlesex Fells Reservation offers hiking trails, rock climbing areas, and scenic reservoirs for outdoor enthusiasts. The average rent for a one-bedroom apartment in Medford is approximately $2,914, positioning the city as an alternative to downtown Boston prices. With multiple transit options, local shops along High Street, and proximity to Boston's employment centers, Medford provides convenient access to urban amenities while maintaining its distinct community character.
