Depending on what you're looking for in terms housing experience, there are a few other, independently owned complexes that are very close to the law school -- literally within view of the school itself, in some cases -- that empty out during the summer and seem to be renting for about $1800-2200 for 2bd 2ba. The time and money and stress saved from avoiding sitting in traffic may be worth any premium.

A poll might actually help

Mario kart won the last poll with super smash and Mario party tied for 2nd

NEWWWWWW POLLLLLLLL

Where are you going to live? Did you get a good deal? How did you find it? Roommates?

I chose other. My family owns a 2 bdrm condo at 635/75. Looking like I'm going to live there to start off because of the price. About a 10 minute drive to campus.

Good poll!

As of now, it looks like I might be living in one of the fraternity houses as their resident advisor (free rent, no roommate, and 15 meals/week). If that doesn't pan out though, I'm looking at the village as a contingency.

I was going to consider this as well. It's definitely a great option.

[TX_UH]

Yeah. I'm still a little worried about undergrads banging on my door in the middle of the night though haha

Deposit in. I am leaning towards living within a mile or so of campus as opposed to being closer to uptown.

[BigCityDreams]

Anyone planning to go to the event on the 5th?

I'm surprised that the village hasn't got any vote yet

I looked at the village and found it to be overpriced (for a one bedroom at least). I found a cheaper apartment that was much larger by going a little farther out from campus. There are a lot of advantages to being near campus/bars/etc, I just preferred saving money and driving a bit more. I also don't go out much, so that wasn't a huge consideration for me.

Would you mind sharing the area you looked in to find cheaper places?

From what I saw, prices dropped a lot once you got outside of 635. I do have a toll tag though, so I'll be able to avoid 75 and the traffic that comes with that by using DNT most of the time. Send me a PM if you want more details.
