Location: Bay Village is the smallest and arguably least known neighborhood in Boston, with a population of approximately 2,100 residents, most of whom live in small brick rowhouses.

The Massachusetts Turnpike is the southern boundary of the neighborhood, which coincides with the right-of-way of the Boston and Worcester Railroad, laid down in the 1830s. Marginal Road and Cortes Street are the surface roads that parallel the Pike. Across the Pike to the southwest lies the South End neighborhood; to the southeast of the Pike and Tremont Street is the southern edge of Chinatown. To the west of Berkeley Street and north of Columbus Street (west of Arlington Street) is the Back Bay neighborhood. To the north of Stuart Street is Park Square, and to the east of Charles Street is the Theatre District.[1]

The one-way street network and non-grid arrangement makes the interior residential streets in Bay Village relatively quiet due to sparse automobile traffic.

Traditionally middle to lower-middle class, the neighborhood has become relatively expensive and upscale beginning around the 1990s - Wikipedia.com

Three Up:

1. New “Green” Construction
2. Central AC
3. Rental Parking Available

Three Down:

1. Price: $772 Per Sq Ft
2: Arlington Street Location
3. True “Studio” Feel; No Separate Bedroom Alcove

Guide’s Opinion: Bay Village is a hidden gem among neighborhoods in Boston. The fact that this unit sits right on busy Arlington St. however, makes it difficult to appreciate the neighborhood’s charm. This may not be a huge factor however, after experiencing the gorgeous new “green construction with eco- friendly radiant heat, reclaimed pine floors, and many other green features. There are 2 units left in the building; this 465 sq ft studio and a gorgeous 2 Br priced in the $700’s. They are definitely both worth seeing in person.

Absorption Rates in Boston’s Sub-Neighborhoods

Tuesday, March 11th, 2008

We believe the best way to predict a market’s future is to examine simple supply and demand statistics. With Mr. Adam Smith as our inspiration we have examined supply and demand for real estate listings in Boston’s sub-neighborhoods.

We looked at single family, multifamily, condo and land listings. To determine supply we measured the number of listings currently on the market. To determine demand we measured the absorption rates (average number of listings sold per month) over the past year. All figures have been rounded off.  Arguably, the higher the supply to demand ratio the more pessimistic one should be about the market’s future.
