20 years ago, I lived by myself at the Warwick on Jefferson Highway and then moved closer to campus because $375 seemed "too expensive." Shudder to think what it is now.

First place off campus was a 3 bedroom townhouse for $400/month.

Left there and moved to a 4 bedroom house for $900/month.

Last place was a brand new 1 bedroom for $400 and I thought that was a fortune until I graduated and moved to a real city.

Is this a thread where folks with rich parents brag about paying rent during college?

Hate to break it to you but most of us just crashed on couches til we graduated.
