Well, I guess its time to move out of the one bedroom!
I would really prefer to stay in the city, but I am scared because almost everyone I know moves out to the suburbs when they have a kid. I know there are a lot of mom's groups in Charlestown, not sure we can find a place with enough space there though. We are also considering Southie.
Any thoughts on a kid friendly part of the city?
Re: Where to live in the city!
We live in Dorchester - Adams Corner, Lower Mills area... it's fantastic!!! Lots of kids in the neighborhood - really safe... the rentals are affordable.. and unlike Southie you can park!
There are tons of parks in the area - I walk daily and i'm always out and about - the neighborhood is extremely friendly with lots of young families.
Good luck!
Arlington!
We're moving in to our new home in Arlington in July. There is an Isis center, lots of playgrounds, T and bus accessibility and affordable homes (in my opinion -- but that's different for everyone, I guess).
You should also look at the school district before you move, in case you want to be there for a while.
Good luck!
