This neighborhood is bounded by Dorchester Bay to the east, the Neponset River to the south, Mattapan and Roxbury to the west, and the popular South Boston neighborhood to the north. The southern sub-neighborhoods of Dorchester are primarily residential, home to numerous families and working professionals, while the northern portion of this neighborhood is more urban, with mixed-use apartment buildings and commercial space. Dorchester Avenue serves as the main commercial thoroughfare through this neighborhood, running south to north from Dorchester Park to Downtown. Home to the University of Massachusetts Boston and Carney Hospital, Dorchester is an ideal neighborhood for college students and healthcare professionals that prefer a short commute. Located on Dorchester Avenue, this JFK/UMass apartment is a short walk or bicycle ride away from nearby restaurants, supermarkets, and transit stations. If you are in the mood for some outdoor recreation, take a stroll over to Joe Moakley Park, which features numerous sports fields and a running track. For those that plan to utilize public transportation, an eight-minute walk from the front door will get you to JFK/UMass station for the Red Line train to Downtown.

Your safety and comfort are our top priorities! To ensure this, we ask all our new members to complete a background and credit check, as well as electronically sign a separate residency agreement. Just a heads up, you'll need to share your ID and Social Security Number (for those in the US) with us. We'll shoot over the agreement right after you book, and we kindly ask you to sign it quickly to guarantee your room. For your credit, we're looking for scores above 550-650, depending on your city and we'll need a clean criminal record too (this doesn't apply to DC). If you meet all the requirements, you will receive the agreement which you need to sign within 24 hours.
