About Mission Hill

Mission Hill sits on a literal hill overlooking the Longwood Medical and Academic Area, making it a natural home for medical students, hospital workers, and researchers. The Basilica of Our Lady of Perpetual Help dominates the skyline, and the neighborhood offers a mix of triple-decker homes, small apartment buildings, and newer developments. Tremont Street provides local shops and restaurants, and the Orange Line's Roxbury Crossing station is a short walk away. Mission Hill is one of Boston's more affordable neighborhoods with the advantage of proximity to world-class hospitals and universities.
