Brighton, MA Apartments for Rent

Originally known as "Little Cambridge," Brighton offers a rich historical backdrop for apartment living in this Boston neighborhood. Dating back to 1630, this former town was annexed to Boston in 1874 and has evolved from its agricultural roots into a residential community. The neighborhood's history includes a notable past as a cattle market district.

Brighton's location, bordered by Cambridge, Watertown, Newton, and Brookline, with the Charles River along its northern edge, provides easy access to surrounding areas. The B branch of the MBTA's Green Line and several bus routes serve the neighborhood, making transportation convenient for residents.

The neighborhood features a variety of housing choices in buildings that average 67 years old. Notable landmarks include Boston College and Saint Elizabeth's Medical Center, while the Chestnut Hill Reservoir provides outdoor recreation opportunities. With approximately 48,000 residents, Brighton continues to maintain its established community character.
