Yeah...housing is tight and expensive. Will you have a car? What were you thinking of spending?
No car, honestly my max is about 2000. I plan on using public transportation. It needs to have at least a fridge and ability to do some cooking in. Trying to avoid a roommate situation, unless it was a pretty good arrangement
That is going to be tough.....try this site....it's great search site.

I would check out JE Furnished Apts too. They are really well managed. They have locations in Quincy and Waltham. All you have to bring is your clothes. They have everything literally! Towels, linens, pots, pans, utensils, etc. They are very reasonably priced! One of the best places I have ever stayed in.
I stayed in the Waltham location, drove to the Commuter Rail then to the T. I saved money by buying a pass. Check out MBTA.com for their prices that will help your planning where ever you move too. I am sure the hospital will let you buy a monthly pass to use the public transit which, will save you more money. Just ask someone when you get there. Sometimes I would carpool with another nurse who taught me how to take the back roads to avoid using the Mass Pike. I ended up using her as a reference too. I am not sure about the Quincy location but, I do know nurses that worked at Mass General stayed there and liked it too.
Anyway, Good Luck!
Thanks for the information and I will look into them. I won't have a car but at least it's a reference point :)
They have an option to be by the trains.
