Apartments near University of Florida

Hello,

My son (23) will be interning for the year at UF and is currently living in California. Long distance moving is a little complicated. He is hoping to get some advice from people in Gainesville.

He is looking for a 2 bedroom/(preferably) 2 bath apartment but doesn’t want to be in a complex that is mostly undergraduates (not interested in loud parties, etc). He will have a car, but a convenient location to campus and/or shopping would be helpful. He definitely wants parking at the apartment. It would be helpful if it was furnished, but not a deal breaker.

If anyone can suggest neighborhoods or, better yet, complexes that they would recommend, he would appreciate it. A couple he has been reading about are Spyglass and Mount Vernon Apartments.

He has also found information about Apartment Hunters, but don’t know if they would be any help. He is curious if anyone has had positive or negative experiences with them.

He needs to move in late June, so he is wondering how early things will be rented.

Any advice/suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks!

The Estates on SW 20th Ave
