Off-Campus Housing for a transfer student
I know there's probably a million different threads like this, but I'm struggling trying to find a place to live as a transfer student. Just about every apartment complex I've looked at is flooded with recent concerning reviews. I know most people say to not do student housing or to just rent a house, but I literally know just about no one in Lubbock. I'm okay with having a roommate or 2, but after the horrible experience I've had this past year with the 3 people I was matched with, I don't know if I trust student housing's roommate matching. Honestly, I'm also considering just living in a studio. I've spent so many hours looking through reviews and threads, and everyone is saying something different. If I were to live in some kind of housing that's not labeled "student," how would I find anyone to live with? I know about the Facebook group, but are there any other websites that could help me find someone to live with if I do go that route? I even created a spreadsheet to compare and contrast several different apartment complexes, and the photo is one page of that spreadsheet. If y'all could give me any recommendations that would help me out so much.
