Hey Ags,
So here's the situation. Hubby is a PhD student at the Bush School, and I have a full-time, entry-level marketing position with a telecom company. We're not exactly rolling in money, but we do well (always able to pay bills and cover groceries, gas, things like that--just not going to Vegas twice a month, or something).
We'd like to stay in Bryan, just because the utilities are so much cheaper than CS (seriously, it's amazing to me that anyone lives in CS, just because of how expensive utilities are!), and we'd like to find someplace that's at least safe enough to go for walks in the afternoon/evening.
Here's the catch: We're looking for a 2 bed (or at least 1 bedroom, 1 office)/1 bath for $700 or less, in a safer area of Bryan.
Is this even possible? Where we are currently is a 2/1 for $660, but the area is....sort of safe. Can anyone make any recommendations?
