Like if it's even an option for you at all, make the move. It's such a better quality of life it's crazy, cannot be exaggerated.
Obviously not easy, but if it's even at all potentially feasible do what you can to make it happen.

So the thing with the Boston rental market is it depends on what time of year you're looking. Like 75% of Boston leases open on Sept. 1 and end on August 31. Most apartments come on the market for the current year in the first 3 months of the year (Jan/Feb/March) so if you're looking outside of that time window there's much less available and the prices are higher.
Edit: There's also no rent control which helps nothing
Why the fuck does the Boston rental market work the same way as my shitty little college town
Because Boston is the biggest, shittiest, college town in the country.
Because Boston is actually like 20 colleges in a trench coat
On the plus side, Allston Christmas rules
You literally cannot even get through traffic hardly around the week that college students are moving in in Boston
