Any apartment anons, what are your average utility bills? Any pro tips for reducing apartment costs, or things to look for when browsing?

Bump. Any apartment-searching advice is welcomed.

have you checked craigslist in the map view for any apartments near the college? I was a bit slow so it was snatched up but there was a really good one near mine in orlando. $600 per month for a private bed/bath in a 2/2 with utilities included. You can also go to your college campus and see at the answer/information center if they have a board for roommate searching.

I'm real leery about Craigslist considering my college is basically in a ghetto part of town. I'll give a go though just to see.
I've seen some roommate searching, none lately but I'll keep an eye out. There's some "students searching for students" resources online through the college but nobody uses them, maybe the office will know.
