Indeed, I'm going to Uconn as a new faculty. I'm from Greece. Yes, when I checked the rentals most it was intended for students in Storrs. You're right, lol. I'll take a look at other towns and seek help free m the center. Thank you a lot for all the precious information. You're awesome!

I was going to make the same suggestion with Willington or Ashford. I was able to find a cheap apartment in Willington when I was a graduate student at Uconn, granted that was several years ago now. They're rural towns yes but they're beautiful, and both short drives to UConn. Willington has the interstate cut right through it so it's still relatively quick to get to places.
