Once again just a girl wondering where the hell I find housing near Blacksburg. Got a job at VT and can’t find a single place to live in my budget and I’m starting to panic. So either some advice or some not-crazy roommates please!!!

Unfortunately finding housing in bburg is like finding a grain of salt on a sandy beach. Most places you have to sign several months to a year in advance. Didn’t know that wasn’t normal until I graduated

Preferably a 20 minute drive or less. Cburg isn’t out of the picture

It still had like 0 availability when I checked. I know it’s supposed to be cheaper but where’s supposed to be open?

Luckily I found a place (it’s so expensive though 🫠) but like what are people supposed to do when they get a job? I wish someone had warned me about this when I was interviewing or hell even when I got hired!
