Hey all. Just got an offer from FSU and it looks like I'll be accepting. I'm looking for a place to live that's in a safe neighborhood, is roughly 600/month, and is within half an hour from school by car. I'm willing to pay more or drive farther, but as I lived in some shady areas as an undergrad (car broken into multiple times by the same guy, etc) I'd really like to avoid it this time. Cypress Pointe has come up in searches as meeting my requirements, but not being from Tallahassee, I have no real way of knowing. Does anyone live there or know anyone who has? Is it safe? It's located north of I-10 behind the Killearn Shopping Center, if that helps.
Of course, if anyone knows of any other places that match those criteria, please let me know. I would certainly appreciate it. I've never been to Tallahassee, so I'm a bit lost as to nice neighborhoods for grad students.
