<p>For off-campus housing, would you say there are more houses or more apartments available? Which of the two are more popular among students? </p>
<p>There are many off campus housing options.</p>
<p>The most popular seems to be getting an apartment in West/North campus. I would contact a realter to show you around and go from there, that is what I did and I’m hopefully signing my lease soon. However apartments get a bit expensive, even if you have cheap rent, you have to pay for your own groceries, furniture, and so on.</p>
<p>I also recommend co-op housing.

Very cheap apartment/dorm like living. They have meal plans and relatively cheap rent, you just have to put in 5 hours of “work” into the house each week by cooking, cleaning, or so on.</p>
<p>I hope this helps!</p>
