National study of renter’s satisfaction with their cities and states
Apartment List has released Brockton's results from the first annual Apartment List Renter Satisfaction Survey. The survey, which drew on responses from over 18,000 renters, provides new insights into what states and cities must do to meet the needs of the 105 million American renters nationwide.

"The US renter population is at its highest level in 20 years, and Brockton scores above average in categories that matter to this large demographic like the strength of the economy and access to recreation."

Young families appreciate Clifton Heights' combination of affordability and historical character in this evolving Brockton neighborhood. Victorian and Craftsman homes now divided into apartments offer architectural details rarely found at similar price points elsewhere in the Boston metropolitan area. The neighborhood surrounds D.W. Field Park with its extensive recreation facilities including walking paths and fishing ponds creating natural beauty within this urban setting. Though some blocks show varied maintenance levels, the neighborhood's ongoing renaissance has created genuine community among newcomers and long-term residents working together on improvement initiatives. The primary consideration remains limited public transportation connections requiring longer commutes to Boston employment, but many residents find the trade-off worthwhile for significantly more living space at competitive rates compared to closer alternatives.
