Thoughts on Mission Hill (safety, convenience, etc.)? Particularly around Tremont?

Lived there in college. It’s dramatically improved in the past few years with more shops, bars, restaurants, etc. and is very convenient for the green and orange lines. That said, not sure I would want to live there post-grad personally. May be biased since I lived there as an undergrad but the neighborhood is basically divided 50/50 with college students and people that I probably wouldn’t want to run into at night (maybe proportion of college students the majority at this point)

I have not lived there, so I can’t speak to it personally.. but I have had friends who lived there and didn’t have complaints? That being said, it used to have the monikers “mission kill” or “murder hill” sooooo take that for what you will

Thanks! Just was looking for a cheap place for my roommates and me and saw a few nice spots in the area. It seems like the area around the apartment was nice enough and it was very close to T stops. Couldn’t put my finger on why it was so inexpensive, though...

Southie isn’t really my cup of tea and is pretty inconvenient for work for my roommates and me :/ but appreciate the feedback I’ll try to see what other places offer. It seems like the area between Roxbury Crossing T stop and Longwood medical area isn’t too bad? Places on Tremont St. seemed cute and were spacious/affordable. But definitely understand how the area could be unsafe.

My VP keeps asking for next year’s roadmap but every week wants it formatted differently and it’s driving me crazy.

When I’ve asked what format and level of info the CTO prefers, my VP says they don’t know and I need to be okay with ambiguity. I’m losing any patience and good will I had.
