Location! Location! Location!

With rent for apartments averaging about $1085 a month, $1256.25 wouldn’t seem high with about 40 meals included, if this was the price per room. But this is the price per student per room.

Finding a one bedroom apartment for this price would leave many options open, and finding a room for about $2500 a month would give you almost anything you wanted.

There are, however, the perks. Living on a college campus with only students with 24/7 surveillance makes it safer already. And with 100 percent of the residents being students, it makes it that much more enjoyable, already. With all the rooms being filled every year, the demand is obviously there. If you get what you pay for, then living around hundreds of young guys and girls with their hormones peaking is worth about a grand a month and an extra roommate.
