I am moving to Cambridge around Labor Day, and only know the immediate Harvard Square area. I'd appreciate advice about where in Davis Square to live (or NOT to live) and how to approach the apartment hunt. There seem to be some (relatively speaking) bargains near Kendall Square, which would reduce my commute, but I have alway felt Davis Square had more personality. I assume I should also budget for parking.

Thanks! I am looking forward to returning about 16 years away.

I don't know what you're looking for, really, but...

If you're hip and middle-upper class, live near porter or davis. Also great if you're an artist, you'll meet plenty of other aimless patrons.

If you're looking for cheap rent, live in east somerville or medford. Just don't look for a coffee shop.
