[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When we were considering moving back to Boston, we were looking at Arlington. [b]The only issue is [u]older housing stock[/u], those very old homes with tiny rooms and weird layout. [/b] It's a fairly diverse town, leans liberal, similar to Cambridge but without the lottery-based school system. I spent a year living on Mass. Ave. in an apartment building, and it was a quiet place but still has restaurants, the Minutemen Trail, end of the Red Line at Alewife, easy access to their version of the Beltway (except it's only a half-circle). [/quote] To me that's a plus.[/quote] I’m another poster whose brother lives there. The housing situation is absolutely insane. He has been trying to buy a house in the million dollar range in cash and has been losing to people who are willing to forgo inspections on houses built in the 1800s. It is a lovely town but it’s a real problem.[/quote]
