<p>I’m having the worst time finding housing, what about you guys?</p>
<p>The transfer dorms are a rip off and I’ve heard it’s hard to meet people, apartments are too much of a pain (moving/utilities/scrubbing bathrooms/etc), and that, to me, leaves a student rooming house. They come with furniture (no moving!), most have maid services for the common areas (no scrubbing!), and almost all have locks on their doors (no theft!).</p>
<p>I know of about 4 student rooming houses in the campus area:
Telegraph Commons (Coed) (and kind of a rip off)
Kleugel House (Coed) (greatest rip off of all…)
Warring House (Female only) (good deal, but a little sketchy and kinda full)
and two unnamed ones randomly discovered on Craigslist</p>
<p>Internet searches for “student rooming house” turned up nothing useful and friends already at Cal found all of their housing by word-of-mouth.</p>
<p>Who has more info?</p>
