So let me know where we should look, and maybe more importantly - where we should NOT look!

I've always liked the newer apartments close to campus along 20th St. You can get something cheaper across from campus on the South of Glades, but things can get a bit sketchy down there. You also have some complexes right behind the mall, but you'll get more families around that area.

20th Street's new stuff is OK. 20th Street's old stuff is much less OK.
My last apartment in "Boca" was in Highland Beach. We found a great deal with someone looking to rent their beachfront condo. So. You never know.

Haha my first off campus spot was one of those 20th Street "old stuff" spots (on NW 4th). Not sure what they look like now, but that place had a new name last I went around there. Still, it served its purpose.Art Vandelay said
My first apartment in Boca was one of those just west of the mall, Town Colony, I think. There were more family-types there, which, I liked. Clean and quiet. And now that mall has so much more stuff around it, all walking distance. I don't work for Town Colony.

Thanks for the replies. I looked at Boca Colony (not too far from the mall, but not sure it is the same place???). One of the big challenges is they want a 3-br, which don't seem to be too common. They don't seem to like the newer stuff around 20th Street, and of course sent me a bunch of stuff close to the beach in Delray to look at. I told them beggers can't be choosers!!!Posted On: Feb 1st 2019, 4:12 PM #384919
I lived in Boca Colony.
Keep looking.

Living there, I used to run in that area and there are a number of complexes right around the mall that would probably suit 3 girls well as I imagine they won’t be throwing their own parties and they are a bit quieter than the 20th st lot.
