There are 1br ($2295) and 2br ($2995) apartments available in the complex I live in the Barron Park area, see below. The first three months of rent are currently free with a one-year lease. The location is very convenient - an easy, 15-20 minute bike ride to campus, and the apartments are quite spacious for the area!
