Encompassing towns like Charlestown , Somerville , Medford , Malden , and Melrose , the Orange Line North is one of Greater Boston ’ s most burgeoning residential markets . Two of the largest mixed-use developments north of the city , Assembly Row and Station Landing , lay along the Orange Line North , and the market will soon be home to the Wynn Boston Harbor Casino and Hotel . These developments have livened the area , providing residents with a wide array of amenities at their doorstep , while still being only minutes from Downtown Boston . A recent analysis across the MBTA revealed that the Orange Line North represented the highest annual rent growth at nearly 6 %. Transit-oriented residential developments in these communities continue to flourish , as residents seek more affordable options without compromising on access and amenities .
