Eh, there are some pretty cheap places in Allston and Brighton. Last spring I had a place for $700 (although it was a whole house rented w some of my classmates)

Is that $700 per person or for the whole house? Trying to determine what you mean by cheap.

Almost certainly per-person. There is nothing in Boston that can be rented for $700 short of a broom closet and that might still fetch $1000.

You mean there are some sketchy places with rats living with you and addicts next door.
