We bought in Fitchburg over 20 years ago because we couldn't afford to live closer to our jobs in Cambridge. Now we'd be strapped trying to afford our home out here in the 'Burg. Hell. apartments here are going for $1600 and up now.

My mom's friend and her husband bought a few triple deckers in Fitchburg/Leominster for dirt cheap and fixed them up and rented them out as their retirement hobby. This was about 15 years ago. Became a very lucrative hobby lol
