This week’s tour takes us to Somerville, where the housing market is as competitive as in neighboring Cambridge and Boston.

At the $650,000 price point, size varies in Somerville from cozy to generous. If you’re looking for living space, storage, and a yard, you can still find it here—but not all in one.

Still, the Green Line extension is really happening this time.
