I agree with Night_Owl49 that at your rental budget, you'll need to find a roommate. If you can rent an 1B apartment on your own for less than $600, you're likely going to have issues with the neighborhood, the distance or the apartment itself.

Besides "Craig", check out the Philadelphia Weekly and Philadelphia City Paper, two weekly newspapers that have lots of rental and roommate listings in their classifieds.

StrugglingMusician91, I just wanted to tell you I admire your courage in trying to pursue a career in music. There's always going to be some jerk telling you you're stupid, but the really stupid ones are graduating college with degrees they didn't really want and 60K in debt. They were promised a good job in return for doing something they don't like all that much, and now they're really screwed... and on anti-depressants to cure their misery. So kudos to you for pursuing what you really love despite the struggles you'll encounter. Personally, I play classical music so going to college was part of my training, and I play an instrument that paid my way and will continue to through a doctorate degree... But seriously, I think what you're doing is brave, true to yourself, and will be a great and educational experience no matter what.
