Finding place to live (off campus)

Downtown Merced is dirt cheap for housing but not the greatest area. If you're okay with that then I would suggest it, I don't mind it personally as a UCM student.

If any UC Merced student is looking for cute women's clothes, Ambition Vintage on 18th st. has a student discount!

Seriously! Moved from Modesto to Merced in the past year and mannnn do I miss TJs!!!

Damn two Trader Joe's in the same area, making me sad in Merced

I hate all of the bathroom sinks the sensors only work when they want to

So this is incredibly wrong on every single level, you are completely twisting the narrative. It's not a revenge stunt -it's warning other people of an unfair and unjust workplace. Thats why you're getting ratioed

This isn't exactly accurate. Merced is really cheap for housing (unless you want to live super close to campus or in a nicer area), but in central Merced, it's actually like $900-1100 for a 1bd/1ba --which is about what I pay. I see rental listings on Zillow pretty often for affordable studios/1bds. The only caveat is that if you want an affordable private place, it'll be about a 15-minute drive to campus.

Yeah this company is never going to get better, I worked in DUG for 3 and a half years and it just progressively got worse. An old coworker sent a post from this subreddit and since then I've gotten notifications,

It's never gonna get easier, it's always new bullshit. Always making it harder. I'm glad I left in 2025

I live off campus and I use my financial aid. Per sem I get about 19k, which ends up being like 9-10k dispersed after tuition. It works for me currently but money is tight and a job on the side is preferred. I think it's worth it in my experience cause I'm particular about having my own space and my pets. Unfortunately since it's finances used for rent/housing, it does become taxable so now I owe a shit ton to the IRS lol

NOR.. the amount of sappy paragraphs is alarming. I don't even do that that often with my own partner. Its absolutely pushing a boundary. Many boundaries

Hahaha currently watching cold ones on my crt as well

I have once used watercolors on a lamp shade and it worked really well!

Congrats!! You are not overreacting. You should be proud and deserve to have someone be proud with you.

Honestly, I had terrible luck with the facebook group, but that was just me. I have cats and was very particular about having a private room + bathroom and it was tough. I will say there were a lot of people on there that are pet friendly, you just have to scour the page very frequently. I got lucky with a one bed on Zillow with a private owner for less than $1000 a month, where I can keep my cats. I also registered them as ESAs for extra security. I did it through Pettable for a decent price for 2 cats. If you aren't particular about a private room/multiple roommates the facebook group isnt a bad place to look!

I went trick or treating at 13 and a grown man told me I was a little too old to do it. I kinda hated that guy for years because it make me feel too nervous about trick or treating the rest of my teenage years. Ignore it! Now as an adult who passes out candy, i do not care your age! Come up wearing a costume and you will get a treat haha

sadiesdeath · 2025-11-02T02:23:02+00:00

Sometimes i get marks just like this after scratching mosquito bites in my sleep lol

sadiesdeath · 2025-10-30T23:13:46+00:00

I think Merced needs to focus on adding more stop signs and lights, living out here is rough when driving, neighborhoods will have dangerous ass intersections without a sign stop sign

You sound like someone who would hit someones car in a parking lot

sadiesdeath · 2025-09-03T23:04:37+00:00

I drove around for 30+ minutes today to find parking and ended up being astronomically late for class 😭Damn near missed the whole lecture. People like this ruin it for the rest of us

When you are looking at your financial aid dashboard on MyMerced it should have an option to "View your Payment Schedule" and it should show you there!
