<p>Where are the best resources to look for off-campus housing and roommates for a transfer student?</p>
<p>In case no one inboxed you about this- I recommend University Village, Kardon/Atlantic, or (opening next year) The View at Montgomery. These are student apartment buildings all on the East side/border of campus by the regional rail system, are close to campus and the campus police, and are very safe/walkable at all hours.</p>
<p>A list of those who have agreements with Temple (I think) are here: <a href=“http://www.temple.edu/studentaffairs/housing/off-campus-living/local-apartments.asp”>http://www.temple.edu/studentaffairs/housing/off-campus-living/local-apartments.asp</a> (You’ll see 2 of the above complexes mentioned)</p>
<p>Here’s a link to The View, although my current roommate looked there and found the prices to be more expensive than UV: <a href=“http://theviewatmontgomery.reachlocal.net/?utm_source=Reachlocal&utm_medium=PPC&utm_campaign=ReachLocal”>Seize your potential | LocaliQ;
<p>When I was transferring, I also looked at Craigslist. (add “Temple” to your search, instead of ‘list’ check the ‘map’ version to get a spatial idea of where students will be clustering) & I wish I had known about <a href=“http://www.padmapper.com”>www.padmapper.com</a> which tells you rent prices and compares to others in the area.</p>
