My husband and I are Canadian citizen and husband got a job offer to work in Norwood, Ma. Just want to know which town is good to live in terms on living environment, population of race, school, shopping and restaurant?

I need to rent a 1 bedroom apartment where there is not feel like suburb. I did some research, and some people suggest Dedham, Foxboro, Canton, Sharon, Stoughton and West Roxbury. Any lady actually live in any of the above town or can idea on how is the living there? Thanks in advanced.

I did searched on Craigslist, but not much to choose from. I am afraid of renting apartment with some private and/or Chinese landlord as well, but just think that might be another option for a cheaper rent.

We did mention about the housing expense but find out they don\'t cover it.
It still worth if renting an apartment in 1 year term will have lower rent. As long as the penalty of breaking lease contract is not more than $3000, it is still acceptable. Need to confirm with Avalon after every details form the new job are confirmed.

Anyway, thanks for BossCatCat and 眼訓 advice.

仲有.. 你地如果搵唐人租樓... 可能有唔好印象... 搞到你地想走... 仲無意思啦...

不如你叫你老公同公司講... 租 Avalon.. 要咁多錢.. 可唔可以叫公司幫幫手啦...

有時有D野... 要開口問... 有就好彩.. 無就算數.. 不過唔問就一定無...

恕我多事,人地山長水遠搞晒paperwork請你落來,如果再加relo package,唔stable極有限呱?如果覺得間公司前途唔好,抱住騎牛揾馬既心態,我覺得俾個面最少留一年,最好兩三年。否則份resume花左,邊個敢再relocate你?

邊度有唐人出租唔清楚,sorry幫唔到你。Craigslist你揾過冇?係最好avoid我講個5個town。Good luck with your search。

Thanks for the info. But my husband want somewhere with lower rent with short lease term. Too hard to find lor coz his budget is around $2000 per month and need to be not old but clean and safe, and have washer and dryer inside apartment unit. I read a lot of yelps and other reviews about scary storys and ppl left even they need to breaking lease contract of some apartments. They said some apartments is full of section 8 ppl and make some apartments no safe to live in. Kind of make me nervous.

Anyway, U mean u will not consider the area of Dorchester, Mattapan, Roxbury, Randolph and Brockton, right? Because it is not safe?

Can u tell me if there is any newspaper or website for Chinese which have ads for apartment rental?

South Shore / South of Boston 以下地區我唔會考慮之外,其他都差唔多。
Dorchester
Mattapan
Roxbury
Randolph
Brockton

睇你personal preference囉。我會選擇Dedham Avalon既原因真係方便。尤其是你地share一架車。行過對面就係commuter rail,出Boston快靚正。你老公返左工,你都叫多d野選擇。住你話Quincy嗰兩度,唔係一人一架車俾著係我我唔會考慮囉。

MA in general 都好 OK 架....唔洗擔心安全問題.... Quincy 同 Braintree 都 OK 架... 多唐人D.. 不過你講呢兩個屋苑都行唔到去 supermarket... etc..無 dedham 咁方便... 就係 station/wholefood/costco/restaurant 隔離...

點評

Rosecliff Apartment, address is 790 Willard street, Quincy, Ma 02169
Archstone quarry hills apartment, address is 333 Ricciuti dr, Quincy, Ma 02169

Try the number below, ask if the rate online is correct, sometime they do discount and the rate is different if you call.

Community Consultant
Lisa Weisberg
781 461 6300

or you can first rent two months, and if hubby like the job and decided to stay, change to yearly least to lower the cost... you don't need to do two months all the day...

or you can ask about the panalty, the panalty may cost less than the two months rent if you decided to leave. e.g. $1000 to break the yearly least after two months of $1800 rent may cost less than two months least of $3000 .... just do the math...

2 month lease貴d就預左。但貴咁多好跨喎。可能係furnished apt? 照咁睇你點計都唔會死錯人架啦。呢頭租apt complex通常都係yearly lease。過一年後可以轉month to month。當然呢個你要問清楚先簽。5年前我轉month to month每個月要俾多10%。如果break lease要罰2個月租。

你亦可以上craigslist搵私人出租,會有多d short term選擇。但小心可能業主想賣樓但唔想掉空既心態來租俾你,隨時俾30 day你叫你走就走。咁好煩囉。

Thanks X 100000000 for calling them for me. Your info is very useful.

I have just checked on their official site but somehow 2 months lease term will result $3152 per month?? And 12 months lease terms will be $1827 per month. What a huge difference.

For the deposit, it is not the main concern.
My main concern is, there will be big penalty for breaking rental contract. My friend who lives in California need to pay at least 3 months rents before she can move out from the apartment. I am just worry if the same thing will happen to me. Haha..cannot afford these penalty.

I just called Dedham Avalon for you... they shortest least they can do is 2 months, and they do have availability around beginning of May starting from $17XX.

The deposit will be different dependent on your credit history, I'm not sure how they rate a Canadian credit history, they said they needed to see your application before they can decide on how big the deposit are without credit history....

其實我都有去過 \"Mie.... ok 啦... 舒服啦... 同中環中級有得比既... 不過個價位就中高級囉.. $$$... \" I agree it is pricey but it is worth it if they can cut my hair to exactly what I want. But the price is higher than in Toronto, I only need to pay $50 to get good hair cut.

One question: do u and 眼訓 know anywhere can find some rental house/ apartment with no signing the rental contract? It seems like the apartment like Avalon station 250 will be big penalty if we break the contract and leave early.

U know, we are planing to come in May..but not sure if the job is stable. We wanna know if we can find a rental house/ apartment that can has less or no penalty to move out.

Bosscatcat. 我唔捨得買壓力飯煲啦。

Defi 我未聽過更未去過。髮型師呢家野,岩我既未必岩你。如果評語好,即管試吓。可以係newbury st立足多年既,應該唔差。
