I'd put it at the level of JP or Somerville 10 years ago.
Yeah. That's pretty much what the landlord said.
I've seen honest faces before. They usually come attached to liars.

people can actually afford to live there, so it's not quite so yuppified, and you get more people from various economic backgrounds, which I consider a positive attribute, not a negative attribute. I don't think it's particularly crime-ridden, though... although I could be wrong.

man, I forgot that it's near the Arboretum and ponds and state reservations! Roslindale rocks.

I do too. Hell, I've lived in Central Square for the last three years! It can't be worse than that!

I KNOW! We drove through the Arboretum yesterday, and it's just so gorgeous. And the area that the apartment is in is like two blocks off the main drag, but on a quiet, tree-lined street. Toto would just love it! Oh, and did I mention it's got a fenced-in back yard he could play in?

Yeah, I was thinking it was funny that your dad would be OK with you living in Central Square and freaking about Roslindale.

He's freaking out, 'cause it's so far away, is what it boils down to.

vw, the Roslindale apartment sounds like a clear winner to me! I hope it all works out the way you want.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
I just started my day by triping over the edge of the area rug, landing on my hip, and spilling my tea everywhere. Nothing broken or burned, but still not the best way to start a day.
My physics teacher in high school used to roll up bits of paper at his desk and fling them at the students he didn't like (he would keep them in the front row for this purpose). He was very funny in the way he did it, so he got away with it.
Wait, you're with an agent that charges you a fee? IME, that fee should *always* be paid by the landlord.
With our agency the owner always paid the fees too.
vw, sorry about the meltdown, but the Roslindale apartment sounds promising.
