That’s probably about 45k after taxes which would be about $3700 a month, and you can get a 1BR for around 2k a month. Not easy but doable

Where in Cambridge can you get 1 BR for 2k?? It’s at least 2400. I moved in September 1, which I know is the height of prices. But, as someone who was recently in the market, your numbers are way off.

My 1 bed was $2050 (recently increased to 2150 because I went month-to-month). It’s a solid apartment close to Harvard square.

Moved to cambridge this Summer and our one bed is 2200 with utilities included, didn’t seem like a crazy deal based on what we saw online.
