I paid $125 a month (with 4 roommates) for my first place in Allston in the mid-90’s. That went up to like $475 (with two roommates) for a place in JP around 1999.

Things went to hell when they got rid of rent control right about 2001/2. That $475 place in JP jumped to $1250 a piece when our lease came up.
