Well it really depends what campus youre going to go to. Some campuses are not in the best of areas, like near downtown. Will it be just you renting or will you have room mates? Housing in Miami is pretty pricey, but again, depends on what area you want.

In your price range you will find a two bedroom apartment at best. Great and affordable cities is an oxymoron in Miami.

Yup. You wont find a house in a decent neighborhood for that price anywhere here. You could find an apartment or condo for that price, or maybe a townhouse down in homestead. But not much else in a safe area. Homestead is about 1/2 an hour from Kendall, without traffic of course. But you really have to look into to it, it has some very sketchy neighborhoods.

Have you considered going to BCC instead? Broward has much nicer cities with pretty much the same activities as Dade.
