Once known for being an insular community of born-and-raised Southie residents, South Boston has changed. The demographic landscape now includes a growing number of young professionals, looking for proximity to downtown and more favorable pricing than the South End. Renovated condominiums in multi-family buildings offer larger space with lots of character.
Don Minchello, a South Boston Specialist at Gibson Sotheby’s International Realty, has seen buyers coming in from New York, New Hampshire, Illinois and Pennsylvania in recent months. “South Boston is a great community and many of the people who eventually buy here start their search in other parts of Boston – the South End, Back Bay and even Cambridge. Their dollars buy larger homes than in those other neighborhoods. South Boston is still an excellent value.”
