Pros of Moving from Boston to Albany
✓ Lower Cost of Living
Albany offers a much lower cost of living compared to Boston, especially in housing. While the median home price in Boston is over $700,000, in Albany, it’s around $250,000 – $300,000, making homeownership far more affordable. Renters also benefit, with one-bedroom apartments averaging $1,300 – $1,600, compared to $2,800+ in Boston.
✓ Less Traffic & Easier Commutes
Albany’s lighter traffic and shorter commute times make getting around far less stressful than in Boston. The city is well-connected by Interstate 90 and 87, allowing for quick access to surrounding areas without dealing with major congestion.
✓ Growing Job Market in Government & Healthcare
As the capital of New York, Albany has a strong job market in government, healthcare, and education. Major employers include the New York State government, Albany Medical Center, and the University at Albany, making it a stable place for career growth.

Albany offers a slower pace of life with a strong sense of community, making it a great choice for families. The city has top-rated schools, lower crime rates than larger metros, and plenty of parks, making it a welcoming place to settle down.

Booking Poseidon Moving services couldn't have been easier and the attention given couldn't have been topped. Oleg was a great communicator and we got plenty of emailed information on what to expect moving day and how to best prepare for it. On moving day, communication with the moving crew was clear and concise. The moving team was careful with our belongings and efficient moving things out and into our new place. Couldn't recommend them highly enough.

Everything about using Poseidon was great! Professional and fast service, and everything arrived in perfect condition right on time. The price and delivery window for my cross country move was by far the most ideal.

Poseidon just moved my furniture from Boston to San Francisco, and they did an amazing job. They took great care packing my furniture with padding and blankets, and everything arrived in perfect condition. They stuck to their pick-up and delivery dates, and the upfront pricing was spot on—no surprise charges. The whole experience far exceeded my expectations. Highly recommend!
