Student Housing Resources
Luxury Student Housing:
Many luxury student housing complexes have recently been constructed adjacent to the UNR campus and more construction is planned for the future. These complexes are owned by private companies. Apartments vary by complex but in general include studio, one-, two-, three-, four-, five- and six-bedroom apartments with private or shared bathrooms. Kitchen and living room are shared by all residents. They are fully furnished with modern décor and luxury amenities such as *gyms, study rooms, hot tubs, game rooms, parking garages and swimming pools. Rent may or may not include utilities or all amenities. Some offer “roommate matching” to put people with similar interests in one apartment—possibility of mixed gender sharing an apartment. Leases are typically one year. **Prices start from $670 to share an apartment with 5 other people to over $1,500 for a studio.
Pros: fully furnished, laundry facilities in each apartment, adjacent or near to campus, luxury amenities
Cons: expensive, unless leasing a studio or one-bedroom, not a private entrance to your apartment and kitchen and living area shared with multiple people. Be aware of “add-ons”—additional fees for services such as parking, trash removal…
