Any ideas on decent off campus housing?

I don’t think that too many apartments hold 4 students, but there are houses for rent in south oakland that might be okay. I would not go further south than Bates Street though (actually, I think you can get a 3BR apartment in Bates Hill Apartments). Houses are for rent on streets connecting Forbes and Bates, such as Meyron, Atwood, Bouquet, Halket, etc.

North oakland is a little quieter and Webster Hall and the Fairfax if pretty close. NDC Real Estate has been very attentive to things in Webster and offers 24 hour security and on-site maintenance.

Did he consider applying for a suite on campus? The Bouquet Gardens apartments have 4 single bedrooms + 2 baths per student apartment…they are quite nice. If he or one of his roommates gets a good lottery number, they could possibly live there.
