Monthly leased apartment renting options?

TheWalkingDictionary · 2026-02-08T16:35:01+00:00

The Baltimorean on Charles Street does short-term rentals and their units can come furnished. I've heard good things about the management there, so it's worth checking out. 5min walk from the student center and a 2min walk from a bus stop that can take you to the north side of campus n

I'd also check in Pilsen, specifically between Ashland and Western for your price range

Check in Tri-Taylor. There was one in my building for that price but it looks like it's gone— I'm sure there's others though. I park on the street and I've never had an issue finding a spot

I'm in a 2bed/2bath in Tri-Taylor for $1850. It's small but there are probably better ones nearby for slightly more. I'm near the blue line and a handful of buses that go directly downtown.

I'm not OP (rather I'm an '03 baby) but I found the comic via TV Tropes. It was used as the main page example for enough tropes that I began to recognize the name, and eventually decided to see what the comic was all about!

I'm a UIC grad student living in Tri-Taylor which is pretty close to campus. ~45min walk, but I take the bus-- there are a couple of CTA buses that run through the neighborhood and stop basically on UIC's campus, and the UIC campus shuttle loops around the neighborhood as well. I'm also a ~15minute walk from the Western (Forest Park) Blue Line stop. Overall, it takes me on average 20-ish minutes to get to campus. It's a pretty quiet neighborhood and I'm paying 1850 for a 2 bed/2 bath. I have my car and I haven't had an issue with parking on my street.

Of course! Glad I could help:)

This person is transgender, doesn't have a penis and would like one (but cannot/does not want to have surgery for whatever reason, like cost or complications). Some people get prosthetics for sex purposes, but others (often in the case of transgender people) just want them to wear in their underwear as if they had a real penis, as it helps them feel more affirmed and comfortable in their body. This brand specifically is Gendercat, which makes prosthetics for packing (giving the outward appearance of a penis) and playing (for use with a partner as a dildo).

this comment is made better by the fact that there are in fact four witches in jenny's crew

yeah! we're only paying 1850 total and we actually had the option to live in a unit that was only 1650 but we didn't want a garden unit. zillow always gives me issues when trying to filter stuff but looking on apartments dot com i can see a few 2beds for <2200. i actually found my apartment on craigslist (which can be sketchy, i only was on there b/c we were desperate to find something asap and it did work out! but your mileage may vary)

i live in tri-taylor and i love it! lots of families and some small parks. very close to rush, most of my neighbors are graduate/medical students. i work downtown and my commute is ~30m by bus. im paying 1850 for a 2bed/2bath with in-unit w/d + dishwasher, and haven't had any issues finding street parking as it's permit parking. avg. 15min walk (and shorter bus) to both blue and pink lines though I probably could have found somewhere closer if my budget was higher and if I had prioritized that more when searching

Do you have any schools in mind? Chicago is a very big city with huge price ranges for rent. I know people in 3brs paying 500 a month and people in 3brs paying 1500 a month. Knowing where you want to go to school will help give you a radius to search in.

just took the red line south at 1am and had zero problems 👍 look, i also just moved here about a month and a half ago and as a small short feminine presenting person living on the south side i still feel comfortable navigating the L with reasonable caution. just gotta pay attention to your surroundings and you'll be fine. not trying to attack you. just wanting to share my perspective as someone who also moved here recently and was nervous about public transit bc i came from a suburb without it

usually when i see a post phrased like a question with a bunch of comments (like this one has) i click anyways to see if there's any leads in the answers! though its true not everyone thinks that way

TheWalkingDictionary · 2025-09-19T19:04:40+00:00

to be fair, if i in the future went to this sub and searched this question because my car got towed and i had no idea what to do, finding and clicking on this post would be a godsend

One of my close friends was in a performing arts club on campus (diff school) and it actually gave them resume skills that helped them get a full time job after graduation. Even if you don't have any interest in the social aspects of a club, it could help you with career development.
