Neighborhood

Directly north of Harvard Square, the city’s iconic cultural hub, Neighborhood Nine holds a premier spot in the heart of Cambridge, Massachusetts. Sitting northwest of Harvard University, America’s oldest university, Neighborhood Nine boasts a diverse population, walkable streets, tree-lined neighborhoods, and unbeatable amenities.

With great public transit, excellent schools, charming residential streets, and a peaceful atmosphere, it’s almost as if this neighborhood is merely a dream. But luckily for you, it’s real (real upscale). This affluent neighborhood is known for its historic homes, nearby Victorian mansions, and rather pricey apartments, though what do you expect from such a notable neighborhood?

Stop by Danehy Park to play at its numerous athletic fields, explore Fresh Pond Mall’s supermarkets and retailers, and shop your way through Porter Square Shopping Center near the Porter transit stop. Numerous restaurants like Bagelsaurus thrive in this supportive community.

School data provided by The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Poorly run and managed, renter beware

On multiple occasions I asked to have features and or amenaties fixed, from leveling the poop table, to fixing a circuit breaker that was being leaked on and arcing dangerously, while I was standing next to it. On multiple occasions I was told they would not fix things, or they would drag their feet and take a month to fix safety issues. I inevitably had to contact the board of safety before they got their act together to fix it. While paying rent there, they had flea and mice problems, both in my building and the other (ie: it wasn't me). During the winter Walden Park is / was too cheap to keep up with snow maintenance, so I often heard of people hiring handy men to shovel out their cars (even though they paid Walden Park to use their parking lots). When leaving, I paid for another "feature" they offer, cleaning up the apartment, again was let down by these paid features. They then charged me extra, because they had to clean the apartment. Yes, it's your property! It's your job to maintain it! You own it! If you had kept up with maintenance, there wouldn't have been safety issues with the space you rented to me! In short, they have a lot of half-baked "features" that when you go to use, are broken or are with such large drawbacks. You are better off elsewhere. Save your money, save yourself the headaches.
