hi everyone! I was wondering if any students and/or locals could help me with the parking situation. I know parking on campus is pretty impossible, but I only live a few hours away and need to drive myself home and stuff for breaks. Is there any place for long term parking that would be easier and not as crazy as the regular UF parking? Or possibly advice about parking on campus?
The garage by the commuter lot is probably your best bet for parking as an on-campus freshman living in the dorms - there’s pretty much always a spot. But it does depend on where you’re living. If you live off-campus, your apartment may have available parking. City parking is also an option depending on where you live. Parking in Gainesville is a headache, but so many people are able to do it so it really won’t be that big of an issue.
