I moved to Somerville about 10 years ago and condo prices are about 100% higher than they were then. Rents up closer to 75%. It has definitely already gotten more expensive.

From a price perspective, I think it’s baked in for the most part. From a rent perspective, it’ll probably keep being baked in over a year or so following the opening of the Medford branch.

Honestly everything is so expensive already, that at this point, all that’s left is the benefit of the green line. The costs are already here. Then we’ll see how the green line changes the neighborhood and how that impacts costs.

I suppose not needing to have a car, or having to rely on one much less would definitely help with the household economics. Thoughts?
