While it may be the smallest city in Massachusetts, Chelsea is one of its most populated. This busy city is three miles northeast of Boston, wrapped by the Mystic River. This historic city was first settled in 1624, and much of its history is still evident in its Victorian architecture and narrow streets. Chelsea is filled with charm and personality, from its corner markets and tree-lined streets to its blend of historic brick buildings and sleek, modern complexes.
When you move to your apartment in Chelsea, you'll discover a fast-paced but friendly city filled with unique landmarks. This is the home of Bunker Hill Community College, Mystic Mall, and Mary O'Malley State Park. Commuters can take the MBTA train from Bellingham Square or the 111 bus into downtown Boston. The Tobin Bridge leads Chelsea residents to the Boston National Historical Park, the Bunker Hill Monument, the USS Constitution, and Downtown Boston in minutes. Boston Logan International Airport is less than three miles from Chelsea.
