I'll be interning there starting in May after I graduate. I've been offered a spot in the ANL apartments that are right on site, which as of now seems like the most convenient option. However, I just want to explore all of my options before making a decision (and the decision has to be made pretty soon -- in about a week or so, according to the terms from ANL) since I'd really prefer to have my own apartment.

1) Has anyone actually had any experiences living on the on-site housing? Is it just for interns? Or will there be other people there as well? There's really not much info out there on this. Just wondering what sort

2) I don't think I'll have access to a car. I might be able to convince my parents to let me borrow the car for the summer, but it's doubtful. And growing up in New York, I'm not really that accustomed to driving commutes. So I'm just looking at places that I might be able to walk to and from (honestly wouldn't mind a 30 min. walk or so, I'm accustomed to it and actually enjoy it...as long as it's safe).

I know next to nothing about the Chicago area. An initial search turned up some apartments in Darien, but that seems to be a not so great area if I'm reading the city-data crime map correctly...

Any suggestions or just general tips for relocating to the area would be greatly appreciated.
