If you’re a Yale affiliate, there are Facebook groups for housing near Yale. Folks from the big leasing agencies post listings and students post sublets often. There’s a big group and one specifically for graduate and professional students. Craigslist is not a good place to look here—mostly scams or dead numbers. Chelsea and Farnham are both legit. Slummy because campus property management is like that, but the apartments are at least real and they get you in to FaceTime or Zoom tour an apartment you’re interested in.
Housing prices are wildly inflated everywhere and New Haven is no exception.

I would think farts would be the least of your worries, with a couch.😂😂

The buy nothing group for your area is amazing for stuff like this. Facebook group.

If you can’t find something free I recommend checking the returns section of Ikea. I’ve found lots of almost-new stuff at a steep discount. Some days might be better than others - some locations put returns out as they get them, others wait over the weekend and put everything out Monday morning.

When you say you tried Facebook, did that include joining/posting an #ask in your local Buy Nothing group? That’s what I’d try.

What a disgusting policy. Why not simply tie that to income?

Now is probably an especially bad time to be looking because most leases will be running in line with the school year (August) or calendar year. In short: all the good stuff is likely taken.
My advice is somewhat dated but I had good experiences with Chelsea Company. Their properties aren’t luxury but they’re a solid management company and in some good locations.
It might be worth reaching out to them to see if any of their tenants need to break lease or if they otherwise have any vacancies that aren’t published.

I guess $1200 or less? I’m moving from Toronto and I find it weird that apartments are being listed for $2000+ when that’s comparable to a big city like Toronto.

Depends on what you consider affordable to be

There is a bus that goes into new haven from Hamden via Whitney ave. Hamden is incredibly safe along Whitney. Less so along Dixwell ave. If you can find an apartment in hamden within walking distance to Whitney ave I'd say it's a slam dunk. My mother walked this route for 30 years to her library position at yale.

Nice! I was just looking at a map of new haven from 1824. I love old maps. So cool to see what it was like before the highways came in.

Let’s Go Hawks. Agreed. That being said More private dollars coming in they closed on the finances. IMO biggest part is building more biotech space on speculation. New Haven is doing ok
