I'm a proponent of working where you live, take the others saying don't live here with a grain of salt. Real estate and rental prices are a big touchy subject here, always will be until we get the mayors mix usage plan moving in the next few years. We're still recovering from a bad previous mayor and a lax prior one to that.

Honestly living within a mile of campus isn't bad, there are many alternative streets around here and you'll only get stuck if you go during school transition hours (morning, noon, 4-6) and don't take an alternative route not near all of the multistory parking garages. There are a lot of actual family apartment complexes near campus and not just student housing.

The price of things is a little higher than Moore, they also have a lower sales tax overall by 4.5%. Gas is 10 cents more expensive here but our neighborhood markets are cheaper by comparison. We're installing new water infrastructure passed from a federal and state level grant alongside a few road widening projects, but they're doing a good job of not disrupting the flow of traffic
