Affordable Student Housing
College enrollment is increasing every year. According to the National Center for Education Statistics, between 2000-2018, undergraduate enrollment increased 26% and is projected to total over 17 million students by 2029. That makes the need for affordable student housing more important than ever. At One Stop Housing, that’s a responsibility we take seriously.
We consider the needs of and lifestyles of college students whenever we begin planning one of our affordable rental communities. Today, more people including both younger and older generations are choosing the convenience of rental apartments. This includes many adult students who are continuing their education. For these reasons, we make it a priority to locate our properties close to colleges and schools whenever possible, and near other local amenities like shopping, dining, employment and recreational spaces.
The Benefits of One Stop’s Affordable Housing Rentals for College Students
Living in a great apartment near campus and close to key cultural and lifestyle hubs are only two reasons why our affordable off campus housing is a smart choice for adult students. There are many others.
1. MAINTAIN YOUR BUDGET: Attending any college or technical school is typically an expensive phase in your life. Even with scholarships, many students rely on student loans to be able to pay for their education. Student loan debt often takes years to pay off, so it can help a lot by maintaining a strict budget. Our property rates start as low as $725/month including utilities.
2. ENJOY YOUR INDEPENDENCE: Does student housing make you immediately think, “roommates”? Then you’ll be happy to know that we have studio apartments, also known as efficiency units, that are best suited for one individual. You can enjoy your independence while saving hundreds of dollars compared to the average rent of a single bedroom apartment.
3. UTILITIES INCLUDED: Utilities such as electricity, water and trash are also included in our rent prices. Affordable student housing doesn’t mean much if you have to pile on extra fees for common-day necessities like hot water and electric. When you rent from One Stop Housing, we take that worry away by including utilities in our already low rental rates.
4. SHORT TERM LEASE OPTIONS: We also offer attractive short-term lease options at select properties. Typical student housing or campus housing usually require a long-term lease of 12 months or more. If you’re looking to save hundreds of dollars by avoiding a longer lease than you need, make sure you check out our properties and ask about short term lease options.
5. TRANSPORTATION SAVINGS: Because our communities are typically located in close proximity to schools, including some within walking or biking distance, students can save on commuting and transportation costs. Most of our properties are located on or near bus routes. We also do not charge a resident parking fee if you own a vehicle.
