Types of apartment in Boston, MA
Boston apartments range from brick rowhouses in Back Bay, Beacon Hill, and the South End to triple-deckers in Dorchester, Jamaica Plain, and Roslindale.

Inside, you often see hardwood floors, compact kitchens, and less closet space. Newer apartments near the Seaport, Assembly Row, and around North Station often have elevators, central air, and in-unit laundry, but the exterior can feel more uniform.
