Longwood Medical Studios

The Longwood Medical and Academic Area (LMA) is an economic powerhouse located just five miles from central Boston. It's home to two dozen medical and academic institutions that are internationally recognized. Each day, more than 100,000 people visit this area to study, work or receive medical care from pioneering research facilities. This level of traffic makes housing and transportation major priorities for visitors and residents. The Longwood Medical Area includes 200 acres of medical and academic campuses centered around Longwood, Brookline and Huntington avenues. In addition to the research and medical buildings, Longwood is home to several important cultural instructions and many independent galleries that line the Avenue of the Arts.

Longwood Medical Area Apartments

Nearly 90 percent of LMA employees work in the medical and research fields, and about half of LMA employees live in Boston. Workers can reduce their commute by moving into an apartment building on Huntington Avenue or a nearby side street. Many large-scale buildings are located on these main avenues, but you'll also find traditional studio condos with street-level entrances. Around Fitzgerald Park and in quieter areas south of Tremont Street, you can rent charming studio apartments in historic bow-front homes. The median rent for studio apartments in the Longwood Medical Area is $1,600 per month. Luxury options in buildings like CityView are available from $2,100 to $3,000. Because there is significant demand for studio apartments from students and young professionals, you may have to commit to an extended lease to get an apartment in the most popular buildings.

Studio Condos

If you're ready to settle down in a studio condo, you'll find suitable properties in the mid-$300,000s. Many working professionals expand their apartment search to include neighboring parts of Brookline, Fenway, Mission Hill and Audubon Circle. This is a great way to give yourself even more housing options. These areas have excellent access to The Emerald Necklace and other parklands. Plus, Green Line rail and transit stops will simplify your morning commute. With an apartment in the area, you can travel to any of these LMA institutions in minutes.
