You cannot possibly live closer to Boston than in Brookline, but Brookline is not Boston. We repeat, Brookline is not Boston, and people from Brookline are proud of their independence from Boston. Nevertheless, we are talking ten minutes to Newbury Street, ten minutes to downtown Boston, ten minutes to Fenway Park – you get the picture.
Brookline is a diverse, melting pot town with a sizeable Jewish population and proximity to Boston College, Boston University and Harvard University. North Brookline is known for its expensive homes and big lawns, but there are parts of the city like Boylston Street and Brookline Village where apartments for rent tend to be reasonably priced. Brookline is generally safe, peaceful and quiet – an ideal city for winding down in one of the many beautiful parks. A family-oriented town, Brookline is not a scene for those looking for a wild social atmosphere. But have no fear party people, there is fun nightlife and good times a plenty just a T stop away in Allston and Brighton, Brookline's neighbors. While Brookline might not have the vibrant bar scene you're looking for, you'll be set for your morning roast at 4A Coffee, delicious bagels at Kupel's, and cheap and ridiculously tasty tacos at Anna's Taqueria.
