Hello,

I recently accepted an internship at Volkswagen Group of America in Auburn Hills. It is six month to a year position and pay rate there is decent. I am in my second week there and I have yet to find an apartment because I started this internship with only about a week and half notice. I am looking for a place to myself that is possibly furnished and where I don't have to pay many utilities. Are there any reasonable furnished apartments in this area that I should check out? I am from a small town in Ohio so this is big change for me so my biggest concerns are being close to work, safety, and affordability. Any help would be greatly appreciated.


Thanks,

If I were you I'd look for a sublet or room to rent from a private owner. Craigslist has quite a few listed, especially in Rochester which imo would be perfect for you.

There are some nice and inexpensive apt and condo complexes in and around downtown Rochester, which is a great small town, with big city amenities close by. Craigslist is a good place to start, and you could look for temporary or sublets while you look around. I think you would be happier with the Rochester area than Auburn Hills. Downtown Rochester has a very active downtown community with lots of events planned to bring people into the area. Great library, restaurants, parks. If you're in downtown Rochester renting, you can walk to everything.
