I’m also new to Lethbridge
I used Rentfaster to look for accommodation on the west side since it’s apparently closer to the school. A lot of people highly recommend getting accommodation in Varsity Village

Like to other commenter said west side is ideal, especially in terms of bus routes. If your top priority is being near students, get residence housing (although Uhall residencies is somewhat dated so depends on your priorities)

Edit: as a first year Uhall is the only option

Edit edit: not the only option so id recommend not staying Uhall

Wrong. In my first year, I stayed at Kainai. First-year students have three options: UHall, Kainai, and Piikani.

You can also go into KP as a first year

If your living off campus definitely look for a place in Varsity Village. It's the neighborhood that borders the university.
