Okay, I wasn't sure where to ask this.

 

I have decided to return to USF in the fall and start my Master's program. For my undergrad I commuted from Bradentucky. It's nearly an hour drive, sometimes longer depending on traffic.  I'm just not willing to do that again. I would like to move near campus but am unfamiliar with the area. Does anyone have a recommendation of a decent apartment complex? It has to be neither ghetto fabulous nor USF student housing (at 36 I'm too old to be living with 18 year olds).  Also, it has to be in close proximity to I-75.

Are you still in bradentuky? Why not just go to the sarasota / manatee campus? Or is your program not offered there?

I don't know your price range or anything, but this was a pretty decent place.

 

(Disclaimer: things may have changed in the past few years since I moved to NOLA)

Last I heard they offered graduate student housing on campus as well.

My wife and I were going to move into Colonial Grand at Hampton Preserve before we decided to move.

Yeah, it's not exactly in the USF area, but it is close to 75.

Ive heard good things about Carlton Arms North , which is east of campus on Fletcher by Lettuce Lake Park.

Plenty of good apartment options in the Brandon area.

I'd look in New Tampa.  The traffic in and out of Brandon can get hairy and with the construction on I-75 north of Fowler, that is worse than Brandon.

See if you can rent in the Temple Terrace neighborhood behind the strip of apartments on 50th. Should be pretty quiet.
