Columbia vz Conway (to rent, home, college)

[lakeland_trend29]

Hello,

My friend and I need some local input. We are college students. We lived in Conway over the summer but moved back to Cincinnati. We really want to come back. However, we are torn between Conway and Columbia. Could anyone give us any info on which is cheaper to rent (in general)? Anything you think we should think about or know? Better chance to find a college job.

Columbia is home to Univ. of SC, so lots of college students, many more than Conway anyway. As far as college jobs, couldn't tell you, but I'd imagine there are more options just b/c Columbia is much bigger than Conway and lots of students are out on the weekends. Rent is probably cheaper here if you're willing to live away from campus, obviously trying to live downtown or on campus, it is much higher.
