Title: Need Info From My Crimson Tide Friends Post by: Marshal Dillon on March 08, 2012, 11:30:11 PM My son is going to enroll at the Capstone for Fall 2012. We need an apartment for him and a buddy. I would like to find a good 2 BR/2bath apartment within walking distance of the University. If you guys could give me the name of some apartment buildings I would be greatly appreciative. Thanks.

I stopped by there after a game a few years ago. The same apartment (half of a house) rents for $1200/month now! But I wouldn't wish those roaches and rats on anyone, MD. Best of luck.

Canterbury Court Woods Country Club Heights at Skyland Campus Way I wonder if some of these were destroyed? He wants a place where he can walk to campus or the Strip, if he wants to.

My son really likes the University Downs Apts., but at $1000 a month, I told him we still had not hit the lottery.

How close do you live? Maybe you should just go drive around and look. I moved to Starkville while my now husband was finishing up his degree and in a college town you really need to lay eyes on it if you can...or have someone you trust tell you the scoop. I got lucky and landed in a cute, cheap, place with no roaches and only had to step over a passed out frat boy once :P Title: Re: Need Info From My Crimson Tide Friends Post by: Marshal Dillon on March 11, 2012, 08:45:12 PM Good luck...fun times.

We do plan to drive there and look around real close and see if we can find a "deal" there. My son is very excited since he is a huge Tide fan (thanks to Dad). He loves all the Tide sports teams, but my big failing is he is a big Yankees fan.

As long as he is a Bama fan, let pic what ever Major League teams he wants. |
