It's not uncommon to overhear students talking about the party or pregame they went to at the University Courtyard apartments - there's always some kind of activity happening there. The Courtyards is yet again the best off-campus housing, only this year, it won best off-campus housing because of its value.

The Courtyards are a short walk to the Green for classes, and with its close proximity to Main Street for a bite to eat and location on South Chapel - where there's bound to be a weekend party - this complex is a popular spot for student living.

While its per-person rent prices aren't necessarily the cheapest, with monthly rent ranging from $710 for a four bedroom apartment with two bathrooms to $1,075 for a single apartment, The Courtyards also offer various floor plans, as well as other amenities and perks that keep students coming back.

Monthly rent includes utility costs such as cable TV, electricity, central heat and air, water, sewer and high-speed Internet, leaving students only with the responsibility to write one check per month for bills. In addition, rather than furnishing their own apartments and splitting costs with roommates, students can enter the Courtyards and enjoy a fully furnished unit.

The convenience of the Courtyards' location and its opportunities for students to both study and relax makes the Courtyards the best off-campus housing for the second time in three years.
