I currently live in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. I plan on moving to PA to attend Widener University in Philly. However, I do NOT need to live right near the university; I don't mind a commute of an hour or so because my classes would only be on weekends anyway.

I have a 7 year old daughter, so safety and good schools are a must. We don't have a whole lot of income either....I have a Bachelor's degree in Psychology so whatever job I might get using that would be my income. Around here I can make around $8-13 dollars an hour, which isn't much, so I'm hoping I might be able to make more money in PA. I plan on renting and I would say my budget would be around 500-800 a month. (Here in the U.P. rent for a nice place in a nice neighborhood is about 500 dollars.)

I have been doing tons of research but I am totally overwhelmed. Any help I can get would be greatly appreciated! I've checked Craigslist, but there are so many scams on there that I just don't trust them.
