Apartments for Rent in Waltham, MA (698 Rentals)

A major contributor to the Industrial Revolution and the initial homestead to the famed Boston Manufacturing Company, Waltham dates back to the 1600s but truly came to prominence in the early 1830s. A number of large estates housed a variety of upper crust through the years, ranging from governors to philanthropists, and the famed American Watch Company opened its doors in 1857. The company would continue for over 100 years, creating over 35 million watches and clocks before it closed in the late 1950s. Today, Waltham apartments act as home to many of the city's 60,000 residents, with financial and technology institutions making up much of the local economic base.
