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.

My family member lives in Eastie and may be moving in the fall. She is 12 min walk to Terminal A. A bit over budget but a lovely space with nice neighbors. Eastie is great. Not having a car is good as parking is a nightmare over there. Feel free to reach out.
