Tell me about it, why would someone want to sleep in the closet? And that was more expensive! We're talking like 6 sq ft!

Okay, I just googled it. Crazy! Are you in the airline business or do you just enjoy having 16 roommates?

The former

I second this. My Grandfather has (at different times) had three couples live with him. He has always asked them to shop for groceries (he pays for his) and clean. From there he only asks for a couple hundred a month (and this is in Los Angeles).

I'd just keep spreading the word around your desired community and see what you can find.

of the cities you mentioned, Apex is "generally" the least expensive. there are several great little apartment communities that are reasonably priced, and nearly all if not all accept dogs and cats.

the price of apartments in Apex is highest at the top of 55 (Morrisville end) and the cheapest at the bottom (heading towards Fuquay, which is dirt-cheap comparatively, but a bit of a drive for you)

if you really want Cary, there is a complex that is safe and clean, but old and a bit run down, that friends of ours with money issues stayed in because the price was very cheap, and the location was great. I don't remember the name, but it's just behind the Whole Foods in Cary, you can probably find it online with a little googling
