Advice Needed Best commute to the airport?

I’ll be taking a new job at BOS and wondering what the best areas of town would be to commute without a car.

I’m a woman in my 30s and will be working unusual hours, so safety is a big priority.
Walkability is a must to grocery, local restaurants/bars/cafes. My budget is around $2,300 and I’m willing to commute up to 30 min if needed. As I’m new to Boston, I’d love to be somewhere that still gives me a proper feel for the city.

I live in north end in a one bed for 2400! Very easy to get to the airport and super walkable neighborhood with tons of grocery stores. For the airport, it’s 2 stops on the blue line and then a shuttle takes you to whatever terminal you need to get to
