Charlestown is a compact community of 8,294 residents where independent beauty professionals can currently choose from 4 salon rental listings. While the market is smaller in scale, the pricing and amenity offerings make it a straightforward option for professionals who want to establish or relocate a beauty business without the overhead of a full commercial lease.
Weekly rental prices in Charlestown range from $150 to $200, with the average sitting at $175 per week. That average figure is the most useful benchmark for budgeting purposes, as it reflects the typical cost a renter should expect. At $175 per week, monthly costs come to roughly $700 to $760 depending on the month, which compares favorably to the city's median residential rent of $1,033 per month.

The current inventory breaks down into two main categories:
Salon chair and booth rentals represent the majority of available options, making them the most accessible entry point for stylists, barbers, and nail technicians looking for a shared-space arrangement. A single salon suite listing is also available for professionals who prefer a private, self-contained workspace. Among establishment types, nail salons account for 2 of the listings, suggesting a concentration of nail-focused spaces in the local market.
Half of all Charlestown listings include each of the following amenities, giving renters a reasonable chance of finding a well-equipped space:
The inclusion of utilities in half the listings is particularly notable. When utilities are bundled into the weekly rate, your total operating cost becomes more predictable, which simplifies financial planning during your first months of independent work.
Understanding who lives in Charlestown helps beauty professionals gauge the potential client base. The median household income is $77,288, which positions residents comfortably above the national median and suggests disposable income for personal care services. The median age of 32.9 skews younger, a demographic that tends to invest regularly in hair, nail, and skincare services.
Labor force participation stands at 70.3%, meaning a significant share of the population is employed and likely maintaining a professional appearance. The population density of 273 people per square mile reflects a more spread-out community, so professionals should factor in how clients will reach their location. Parking availability in half the listings addresses this consideration directly.
With a median home value of $205,375 and median residential rent of $1,033 per month, Charlestown offers a moderate cost of living.
