If there’s a more game-change-y neighborhood in Greater Boston than South Boston, we don’t know about it. Given its perennial popularity and the strong whiff of transformation in the air, the rental market in Southie remains one of the region’s more competitive; and neighborhoods in general in these parts are especially competitive during the dog days of summer. So! To help your next search along, we culled South Boston apartments asking $2,500 on the nose to give you a sense of what that magic number rents.
We start with Unit 503 at 33 Sleeper Street just off the Fort Point Channel. It’s an 860-square-foot studio and comes with W/D as well as central air.
