FSU Off-Campus Housing

I’m a freshman starting FSU now in the summer & I was looking for some apartments. I didn’t really want to stay in the dorms because the pros just seemed better to get an apartment. I wanted to know if anyone can help me out with choosing a good apartment in a good area. I don’t mind being with undergrads obviously and I would like to be close to campus since it would be more convenient but it’s more of a priority to me that I live in a good area. Does anyone have any suggestions? Also I’m looking for a 4/4 or 3/3 at a cheap price. I’d say $400-600/mo. but no more than that. One more thing, since I’m just starting out, any advice from fellow 'noles about being a freshman?
