'Tis summer and leases are starting to turn over like mad. One of the turning-est places is Somerville, that densely packed and changing-forever neighbor to college-packed Cambridge. We set out to find 10 solid options available for under $2,500, including ones that might be amenable to shares because of their sizes or because it's explicitly stated in the listing.
We start with Unit 2 at 253 Summer Street. The 2-BR, 1-BA, 1,000-square-footer comes with free WiFi and basic cable. It's the priciest of the lot at $2,450 a month.
