Jamaica Plain: The Best of Both Worlds

Jamaica Plain is a great, affordable option for anyone looking to move to Boston. Nestled below Mission Hill and Brookline, Jamaica Plain is a great place to call home for young adults, college students, and families alike.

Within Jamaica Plain, there's a handful of notable areas to consider moving: Forest Hills, Stony Brook, and Jackson Square. Jamaica Plain is a great combination of both quiet, green neighborhoods and a busy, bustling atmosphere. Considered one of the greenest neighborhoods in Boston, Jamaica Plain is home to many great outdoor spaces including Olmsted Park, Jamaica Pond, Arnold Arboretum, and Franklin Park.

Jamaica Plain is serviced by the Orange Line, which allows quick and easy access to downtown. Also, Jamaica Plain has easy access to the MBTA commuter rail, which can bring you outside of the city allowing you to explore Massachusetts easily without a car. 

Jamaica Plain is also home to great restaurants and a ton of breweries. The main Sam Adams brewery is a fantastic way to spend a weekend, but you also have a couple hidden gems including Turtle Swamp Brewing! Overall, Jamaica Plain is a great, affordable location allowing you to get away from the busy city.
