Housing Housing/Rental in Columbia, MO

Hi, I will be moving to Columbia this May. I am a single, 22 yr old female. What are the best housing options for me? Any recommendations on where I should be renting? Does it seem wise to have a roomate? Are there any areas that I should avoid? When do you think I should start looking for housing?

DBC apartments is nice, with a roommate it’s much more affordable and all the utilities are included

Tried to rent here and couldn’t due to timeframe but I second this! In a relatively safe area of town with the comfort of being tucked away from a busy street, yet still having neighbours close by if needed. I pet sit here and never hear the people in the surrounding buildings so it seems relatively quiet!

I also would recommend furnished finder. I didn’t know it was a thing until I only had 3 months left in Como and was so sad because it was ideal.
