Planning to go to Arizona State University and trying to understand what to look for in off-campus housing around Tempe… kinda overwhelmed ngl . What stuff should I keep in mind before choosing a place? Safety? Commute? Furnished or not? Need help pls. I’ve been seeing a lot of options under arizona state university housing but no clue what’s actually good.
Same boat bro been checking places but IDK what’s good or not. People say Mill Ave is close and lively but noisy. Some parts around Apache are cheaper but sketchy at night?? Anyone living there?
Okay so I’m already here at ASU…definitely you should look for places near the shuttle or light rail stops, trust me it helps when it’s 100+ degrees . Also check if it’s furnished, some places look cheap then you end up spending more on basics like a bed lol. And do read reviews on google, they expose everything
Yeah I made the mistake of picking the cheapest one lol big regret . My room has AC issues and management just ghosts me. Now i always ask ppl on Reddit or Discord what they think of an apartment before i even tour. Good wi-fi + maintenance support is a must!!
