2 More Apartments for Rent in Auburn AL
One of the first challenges for an out-of-state student preparing to start his or her first semester in Auburn University is to find an apartment for rent in Auburn AL, ideally somewhere close to the campus and well within a university student’s budget. Proximity to cheap restaurants, malls, and entertainment is definitely a plus. Availability really shouldn’t be a problem, Auburn University being one of the largest universities in AL.
Checking out what was available for my son’s impending move halfway across the country, I came across these promising apartments, and I hope the list, as well as my comments, is helpful to other parents and/or students who have a similar task to accomplish.
University Heights at W. Longleaf Drive Auburn AL has multi-bed units that come in at less than $400 (I believe this is a 4-bedroom unit, so privacy would be at a minimum, both potentially good and bad when it comes to student culture). It’s a bargain as far as Auburn apartments go, and as such a lot of university students stay here. It is described as “premiere luxury apartments for students,” but from what I’ve read, the word luxury is very different when applied to students as it is when us ordinary folk use it.
Personally, I’m leaning towards Two 21 Armstrong in Armstrong St, Auburn AL (#221, hence the name). It is nice, cozy-looking and way more than complete with amenities. It is pricey though, at $700-800 being the lowest rent (1-bed/1-bath). I can’t complain location-wise since it really is just a hop away from the university campus; walk a couple blocks and you’re there. Maybe the zero-required budget for the daily commute will make up for the cost.
