Gainesville Apartments Closer & Cheaper Than Many Dorms

Many incoming UF students, both freshmen and transfers alike, list proximity to classes as one of their primary reasons for choosing to live on campus their first year. It is an all too common assumption that students are led to believe based on their limited knowledge of other college campuses and the cities that surround them. What students (and parents) don’t know is that Gainesville is particularly unique in the way its off campus housing market has been developed. Since the University of Florida has very limited space to expand on, campus planners made the decision early on to develop more classes and spend less on campus provided housing (i.e. traditional dorms, family housing, etc.) and parking. This has led to an incredible demand for an “off campus” housing market, which is extremely competitive. While many apartments can be quite a distance from the main campus, there are numerous apartments located right across the street from the university. These truly magnificent and Unforgettable Gainesville Apartments are a fantastic choice for those students who are looking to live near campus and at the same time have the modern amenities they want. In fact, by living off campus a typical student is more likely to be able to live closer to their classes, be furnished with luxury amenities, and save on common expenses by splitting living costs with roommates. It’s definitely something to consider!
