Well, I hate to scare you with that, but my fiancé and I wanted to be in Broken Arrow for sure. We also wanted an apartment with a garage. Our 2 bedroom/2 Bathroom apartment at ~1,115 sq.ft. has a rent price at $899/mo. however, with the garage its $95 more each month. They are very nice, considered "luxury" so you're required renters insurance which is $10-12/month. They were built in 2015. We also looked at several apartments in the surrounding areas. If you can find a roommate I would highly recommend splitting the rent at these apartments or one near these. There are also some very good apartments near Riverside in Tulsa, which is right across the river from OSU-CHS. Those University Club apartments are SUPER nice, but VERY VERY Expensive and not to mention if you don't like weird places it's probably not for you, a girl pushed her boyfriend off one of the higher floors and killed him. Random fact, but I like to tell people about it. Are you from around the area?
