CalRentals, BlueElmo. Pay $30 and get access to their version of Craigslist, accessible only by those affiliated with the university. Quality control, I guess? It does have a good chunk of listings, so it’s worth considering. But Craigslist is free and accessible by more people, which translates into more opportunities.

The apartments right on Telegraph range, and are frequently not available. The Carleton is the cheap one, I think it hovers around $500?, but from what I recall it’s because it’s shared (3-4 people per bathroom, 1-2 people per room?) with no kitchens. They post on Craigslist when available. There are one or two other places right on Telegraph, I don’t know if they have names; I looked at a studio in one, pretty roomy, hardwood floors, high-tech security (cameras at the door for buzzing in, for example) that was $950 + utils. Also found on Craigslist.
