Walter Bronhard units are usually pet friendly. My old Hope St basement apartment (1 bed) was $1000/mo. If you don't want to live in a basement, though, you probably need to look further away from the city center.

Op if you don't another worst landlord you ever had to deal with, might not want to go with Bronhard.

They are definitely not the greatest landlord, but, coming from Boston, they absolutely are not the worst either -- at least from a building maintenance perspective. They also don't charge pet rent or ask for a pet deposit, which is a rarity. I rented at $1k/mo two years ago, and now I'm currently renting a different 1 bedroom for $1.1k/mo near College Hill.

Tough to find an apartment even in Fall River or New Bedford (MA, but nearby) for that tbh. Rents are going up and up.

I'm fine with that. I work from home, location's not a big deal for me.

The exact building I used to live in is on Apartments.com, actually, if you want to give them a try. 2B is still $1k/mo. Idk what your timeline for moving is though.
