About Back Bay#
It's hard to believe that before the Back Bay was one of Boston's most desirable neighborhoods, it was a marshy tidal bay. Hence the name, the Back Bay. Transformed by developers in the mid-1800s to address overcrowding, the Back Bay quickly became the city's most coveted neighborhood, the address of Boston's wealthiest residents. Today, the Back Bay remains one of the most expensive areas to live in Boston, second only to Beacon Hill. Even so, it is possible to find more affordable apartments in the Back Bay.
