Default Help!
hi!
I am 18 years old and am planning on attending cincinnati state in february.
I am not faimliar at all with any areas of cincinnati I just know that it does have somewhat of a bad reputation with crime and poverty.
I was looking for an apartment ( i am willing to commute 10-15 minutes at the most) and was wondering if tehre are any areas I would be able to feel extremely safe in but still be able to afford.
I was hoping there would be some apartments near UC so it would be mostly students. Does anyone have any ideas?
I just am extremely apprehensive about this since I live four hours away and it is hard for me to get down there and check things out for myself.

thank you!!

As a college student, I would imagine your budget to be tight. Maybe near fraternity row on UC. Though it may be noisy , if you befriend those guys and are ever in need of help, they would most likely would come through.

The Clifton gaslight area would be my pick. I lived there when I was younger. It's very convenient to bars, restaurants, a grocery store, UC, and has great bus service. I always felt safe there.
