Moving from NYC (Tempe, Taylor: apartment complexes, luxury, prices)

[ms.teach]

Hi all,

I'm going to be moving to AZ at the end of July. I plan on staying in an Airbnb for a week while I find my own place. I thought I'd brainstorm some ideas now online and then go visit them when I get into town. However, I'm finding that a lot of apartment complexes either have 1 star and are reasonably priced or have 4-5 stars and are highly priced. Does anyone have any apartment recommendations for a working professional in her mid-30s that won't be comparable to NYC prices, but of good quality? Also, it should be close to ASU. Thanks for your help!

You could check out Tempe Metro, at McClintock and Apache. I recommend it

Use zillow.com and choose "rent" instead of "buy". All of the available apartments will come up in a map and you can make a list.

Arecthose star ratings coming from apartmentratings.com or something similar? Unfortunately, you can't trust those sites at all.

Look at Mark Taylor apt complexes. All very nice and very well run. Arizona Apartments | Mark-Taylor | Luxury Apartments in Arizona

Where will you be working and/or what is your budget and needs?
