If you’re looking to rent a place around University City there are a couple of companies you should look through. Campus Apartments owns many of the buildings in University City. Covering an area ranging from about 38th street to 50th street, Campus Apartments has a number of places to choose from. Their prices vary with location and number of bedrooms, but it’s really reasonable for the University City area. Also, not all the utilities are always included, so be prepared to pay an electricity or gas bill if the rental calls for it. The main concern with Campus Apartments is that they are really bad “landlords.” If you call with a problem (heating, water leakage, structural damage, etc.), they don’t respond quickly. In fact, they may take up to several months to actually come and fix it. The rentals are pretty good and their prices are fair; just be extremely wary of their maintenance if you intend to rent though them.
