About i need to move to Boston in a couple months, where is best and safest to rent? Will work be easy to find

I need to move to Boston in a couple months, where is best and safest to rent? Will work be easy to find?
I am 20 and working at the moment, but the season for my job will be over soon. I need to make a new start somewhere, I should have around $15k to move and start somewhere else with. I would love to move near Boston. Will work be difficult to find? will a place to rent be hard to find? will my age effect my ability to rent a place? and where is a safe, nice place to live? -thanks, Griff

Answer 1 :
in boston safe and affordable are 2 differant things.you can get a studio in dorchester ,roxbury ,or mattapan for around 900 per month.90 % of our murders accure in these 3 villages of boston. if you move north or south rent goes up exponentialy.try saugus on the north shore.if you go west to the framingham area your looking at 1000 per but outragous tolls if you work inthe city[ i used to pay 80 a week just on tolls]work? we are the only state losing population for a reason.
Answer 2 :
No doubt about, rents in the city are expensive unless you have roommates. I do think your age might be a deterrent for renting, unless you just rent a room from someone. What kind of job? Boston is not inexpensive to live. You have to figure transportation costs, job salary. Some places are less expensive, but not real safe. Try getting a local newspaper. or go to Boston.com and search around the area a bit. Good luck
Answer 3 :
Maybe a good way to start would be to rent a room in a house outside of the city and near public transportation. Driving into Boston is expensive. Then you could scope out jobs etc. and not be locked into a lease. There are jobs, but it depends on what you do.
Answer 4 :
Jamaica Plains
Answer 5 :
Try getting an Apartment in Somerville or Cambridge both are at least 5min outside Boston and T accessable. They are both safe much safer than any other places. You will have trouble finding a job, because I am 26 lived here in Boston all my life and even I am having job finding trouble. When getting an apartment make sure you can afford rent because it can be expensive. one bedrooms can go from $800 on up. Try and get a roommate if you can. Hope that helps you.
Answer 6 :
You should definitely consider living with roommates -- Boston is very expensive (1BR apartments start around $1200). It's not hard to find a place to rent, as long as your expectations are realistic. Your age won't necessarily be an issue, but most landlords will want to run a credit check and will request proof of income (most younger people in the city are students and have parents who co-sign / guarantee their leases because of this). If you aren't working, or are working a job where you don't make enough to pay your rent, that could limit your options.

Avoid all public transportation if you can. People are disgusting and sneeze and cough without covering their mouths.

Definitely not!

Gosh no !!! There is mass hysteria. Just carry some hand sanitazer.
Answer 5 :
BELOW IS BORROWED FROM : NATURALNEWS.COM (I’ve reformatted it and snipped a little of it) (This information came from an email from Patt, marked VERY IMPORTANT) According to reports . . . . this strain of influenza contains viral code fragments from: Human influenza Bird Flu from North America Swine flu from Europe Swine flu from Asia This is rather astonishing to realize, because for this to have been a natural combination of viral fragments, it means: 1. an infected bird from North America 2. would have had to infect pigs in Europe, 3. then be re-infected by those same pigs 4. with an unlikely cross-species mutation that allowed the bird to carry it again, 5. then that bird would have had to fly to Asia and infect pigs there, 6. and those Asian pigs then mutated the virus once again (while preserving the European swine and bird flu elements) to become human transmittable, 7. and then a human would have had to catch that virus from the Asian pigs -- in Mexico! -- and spread it to others. (This isn't the only explanation of how it could have happened, but it is one scenario that gives you an idea of the complexity of such a thing happening). Now, on a common sense level, what is the likelihood of such a combination of seemingly unlikely, trans-continental events taking place? At first glance, without the benefit of additional laboratory analysis, it seems extremely unlikely that this could have happened "naturally," without human intervention. It's not outside the realm of possibility, of course, but it seems exceedingly remote that such events happened without some human encouragement.
Answer 6 :
I would not change my plans. This is not a pleasure trip. How important is the conference. If it is not the most important element of your career skip it. But, I would not be concerned with getting the flu.

About if I live in Boston and work in New Hampshire, do I need to pay MA state income tax? Is it refunded end of yr

If I live in Boston and work in New Hampshire, do I need to pay MA state income tax? Is it refunded end of yr?
My job is located in New Hampshire, but I'd rather live in Boston because my family/friends live there. Am I responsible for paying MA state income tax? If so, will I receive an income tax refund for all the money? Appreciate your help on this.

Answer 1 :
yes, you need to pay mass tax. do your taxes and find out. why is this in travel and not taxes?
Answer 2 :
Yep, MA will tax your income from New Hampshire if you live in MA. If you paid some tax in NH, MA would give you credit for paying NH - but considering that NH doesn't have income tax, you will get to pay it all to MA. Your employer will withhold the MA tax from your paycheck. You will pay MA tax just as though you were working in MA. If your goal is to avoid state income tax, I'd move to NH and use the savings to drive to Boston when you want to see your friends.
Answer 3 :
You have to pay Mass income taxes and you will not receive an income tax refund for all the money.
Answer 4 :
"Am I responsible for paying MA state income tax?". YUP! "will I receive an income tax refund for all the money? ". NOPE! zippo! Sorry!
Answer 5 :
I believe so, but unfortunately you wont receive a refund for that State. You can call the IRS at 1-800-829-1040 they should be able to help. For the future you can try http://www.filelate.com, this is an online tax Service i've used and they are helpful at answering my question, Good Luck
