This happens at literally every college town. People move there for school and then move away for their first job. If there were more job opportunities for recent grads, they would stay. This isn't specific to Yale or the students who go there.

I met my wife at Yale in grad school. We loved and still love New Haven. Our programs took us to NYC for our final year of training, and we took our first jobs there because that's where the job opportunities were. A few years later, when we had more options, we quit those jobs to move back to CT because we love it here. No all transients are transient because they want to be...many are simply following opportunities.

I don't have any specific apartment recommendations, but I do recommend looking into each apartment's specific policies before writing them off. Ived lived in buildings in/around NYC that had similar policies, but all they required was a note from a vet stating they were up to date on shots. There were Huskies, Pitbulls, and German Shepards in the building. All were technically not allowed, but it was never a problem for me or anyone else we knew in the building. Good luck.

If it were profitable to keep the place open all day, they would do it. As much as I love a daytime beer at a local dive, I can't get there due to work, as is the case for most other people. Paying for staff to open the place to cater to a handful of customers doesn't make sense most of the time.

For a reactive pet owner, I'd recommend exploring a pet sitting option like rover.com or consulting with your vet's office for pet sitters.

We have also used Instinct Dog Training in NYC for reactive dog boarding. They were wonderful and skilled at working with our very dog-reactive dog in boarding and training situations. I know this likely isn't a huge help living in New Haven, but it's been worth the drive for us when family aren't available.

Use Psychology Today. You can filter based on a number of criteria, including presenting issues, gender of therapist, insurances accepted, etc. If they have a website, there will be a link to it. You can see pictures of their offices, see their credentials, and learn more than you will off your insurance directory. Call a few and speak with them. In 10-15 minutes on the phone, you'll get a sense of who seems like a better fit than others.
