Looking for an apartment outside State College
This is a long shot, because I see this forum isn't terribly active. But, I'm looking for an apartment outside of State College, but preferably a minimum of 5-10 miles away. I'll be going to school there in the Fall (I know it's late to be looking), and I'd like to keep away from the high expensive and drunk college kids in closer to the main campus.
I've tried the major apartment search websites with no results. Most everything seems to either be right in State College and a bit pricey, many geared toward students that would want to share a residence with several roommates, or they are over 30 miles away. But, I know these websites aren't tracking all apartment complexes, as a couple apartment complexes that I've lived in and looked at in the past elsewhere aren't showing up either.
Anyone have any suggestions?
ThanksLast edited by PA452; July 26th, 2010 at 12:04 PM.

check out the bed and breakfasts in Bellefonte - some of them do long term rentals

Re: Looking for an apartment outside State College
Check with any of the Realty businesses, most of these also manage rental units in the area. Check the Lemont, Bellefonte, Boalsburg, Port Matilda areas. Further out would be Potters Mills, Spring Mills, Millheim, Lewistown, Tyrone, etc.
I'm out of town this week, but when I get back I'll take a look and ask around to see what might be available.

Re: Looking for an apartment outside State College
If you need to commute (drive) to campus, check out the parking first. I worked on Campus last month and paid $35 to park there for the two weeks I was there. It was still cheaped than feeding the meters. Take that into account if the place cost a little more, but includes parking/ close to campus.

Re: Looking for an apartment outside State College
Don't rent from Dale Trout, Rodney Hendricks or Sun Corp at all. I've never heard a good thing about ANY of them and have personally been in properties owned by all of them and have been thoroughly disgusted by the condition of the places.
As others have mentioned Bellefonte, Pleasant Gap are both close enough and decent areas.

Re: Looking for an apartment outside State College
That's something I hadn't even thought about. Does PSU not offer parking for students?
I'll have to look up a number and give them a call. I used to go to a PSU branch campus. They issued parking permits, but there was really plenty of parking. I forgot all about that issue.
Thanks
