Mattapan, a historic Boston neighborhood, offers a rich heritage dating back to indigenous times when it was known as "a sitting down place." Today's Mattapan features diverse architecture, from classic triple-deckers to small apartment buildings and single-family homes, all conveniently located near the Mattapan-Ashmont trolley line that connects to greater Boston.
The neighborhood boasts several green spaces, including Harambee Park, Boston Nature Center and Wildlife Sanctuary, and the Forest Hills Cemetery. Blue Hill Avenue and Mattapan Square form the neighborhood's commercial center, offering banking services, dining options, and retail shops. With average one-bedroom apartment rents around $2,119 and two-bedrooms at $2,564, Mattapan provides more affordable housing options compared to other Boston areas while maintaining excellent transit access through both the trolley and the Fairmount Line of the MBTA Commuter Rail at the Morton Street and Blue Hill Avenue stations.
