Finding Self Storage in Boston, MA: Everything You Need To Know
When you think of Boston, Massachusetts, you might think of the American Revolution, Sam Adams beer, and Boondock Saints. But the city so much more than that- it has one of the largest Armenian American communities in the US and a substantial Caribbean diaspora. Residents can expect world-class healthcare thanks to their proximity to the country’s best medical schools. On the weekends, they enjoy cheering on professional sports teams, going to art museums, and one of the country’s best park systems.
World-class cities have high housing prices, unfortunately. The average rent for a studio apartment is over $3,000, up 16% from 2021. And the average home price is $800K, up almost 7% from last year. Unless you have Kennedy money, you’ll probably be downsizing when you move to Boston and you’ll need some storage space.
That’s why you should keep self-storage in your plans for any Boston move. With facilities all over the city, there’ll be one that’s close to home. No matter the size of the unit or the length of the lease, you’ll be surprised at how affordable it can be, too. Don’t let storage be the reason you miss out on this all-American city.
