Hello everyone,
I'm an incoming PhD student to UMass. I've been looking for an apartment and I found "Squire village" and "Boulder apartment" pretty nice. I have a few questions about the apartments and the area so if anyone can answer any one of the questions, I'll appreciate it very very much!
1. I won't have a car probably for the first year. Do you think it'd be doable to commute from the two apartments to the school?
2. Overall, how much should I expect to pay for utilities?
3. This is not for the apartments but is there a place to buy some inexpensive furniture (e.i. a desk, a bed, a table...)? I don't mind using second hand ones
.
I appreciate any information regarding the two apartments or any other nice place you might want to recommend! Thanks!
