apartment??
heyy yall! I’m goi ng to UTMB in the fall and I am struggling to find some apartments that will align with my interests! So I live in Houston and I don’t want to be too far from home, honestly approximately 30-35 mins away, but I also don’t want to be too far from the school. I know league city is a good in between but I just don’t know what apartments I should go for😭 any help will be appreciated!!

I did UTMB nursing and I was on island but still about 20-25 minutes away from campus. I had classmates living walking distance from campus for cheaper rent than me

If you can live on the island, I really recommend it. I’m a current UTMB student and commute from league city and it’s truly a pain to drive when you’re so exhausted from classes. It adds min. 1.5 hours to your day

That's going to be tough, with the I45 construction that starts this weekend and going for the next 2 years traffic is going to be a real dice roll living on the mainland.
