You’re probably sick of reading Boston’s rent prices are among the highest in the country – or similar lines on a fairly regular basis. I’m not going to tell you something you already know. Rather I’m going to show you.

We compiled March data released by Zillow on the highest, the highest year-over-year and the lowest median rent prices by Boston neighborhood. Some of the ritzier communities by median price might surprise you.

As you can see from the graphics below, Chinatown clocked the highest rent prices with $3,381, followed closely by Downtown, $3,234; Back Bay, $3,146; South End, $2,997; then across the Charles River to West Cambridge, $2,963.

The highest year-over-year prices, which allude to the fastest rising rent costs, show that Mattapan recorded the highest increases with 11.5 percent; then South Dorchester, 11.1 percent; West Cambridge, 10.6 percent; Hyde Park, 9.6 percent; and down to North Weymouth with 8.8 percent.

What’s particularly interesting about this cluster is that they’re on the outskirts of the city and, save for West Cambridge, to the south and not nearly as accessible to public transit as those with the lowest median rent prices.

Lowest median rent prices included Brighton, $1,537; East Boston, $2,314; Fenway, $2,336; Kenmore, $2,338; and Allston, $2,355. One pretty glaring common denominator here: Aside from East Boston, these are all booming college neighborhoods.

The data is based on the Zillow Rent Index (ZRI), which compiles the median rent value of all homes in a given area, whether or not they are for rent. The methodology is as follows:

The Zillow Rent Index is the median Rent Zestimate (estimated monthly rental price) for a given geographic area on a given day, and includes the value of all single-family residences, condominiums, cooperatives and apartments in Zillow’s database, regardless of whether they are currently listed for rent. It is expressed in dollars.
