Hi everyone,
I will be moving to Charlotte from Western NY this August and I am looking for a suitable apartment in which to live as I complete my MA at UNCC.
-I will be living with my boyfriend, and as we are both financially limited, we need a place that will cost no more than $400 per month per person (so $800 total,) although less is obviously better.
-We do not wish to live with roommates, and we do not mind a small-ish place as long as we will not be too cramped. We'd would be fine with a studio, although a 1-bedroom would be ideal.
-I am very, very noise sensitive, so I need somewhere that is not above or below a bar/nightclub/etc. I live above a bar right now, and I CANNOT stand it. Normal sounds of the city are totally fine.
-I would like to live somewhere that does not allow pets or has very strict property management. I have no patience for inconsiderate pet owners and if I lose sleep over barking dogs, I will go postal. Also, I'm very allergic.
-Oddly, however, I do not mind the sounds of kids (I love them!!) so a family-friendly complex would be fine.
-Preferably, I would like to live within walking distance of campus. By walking distance, I mean 25 minutes or less walking time.
-I loathe the smell of cigarette smoke, so I cannot live anywhere where tenants are allowed to smoke where the smell will waft into others' apartments.
Given these parameters, can anyone recommend a good place to live? I realize that this post make me seem totally lame, but I'm really cool, I swear!
Thanks in advance for recommendations.
