I am planning to start my PhD at UA in Fall of 2014. I know they have https://offcampushousing.uark.edu/ to help with finding off-campus housing but I wonder what areas are safest. The most I could afford would be $500 a month for a 1 bedroom but I'd like to keep it around $400 or so if I can. I'm just wondering how safe those areas are.
I was thinking of going out there during spring break in March.
