I know, it's fucking difficult to find a decent place in this city! I'm staying in a place temporarily and I love it, but in November I will have to find something else and I honestly don't know what I'm gonna do :(

The only thing I could think of is to find someone to be a roomate with and to look togeather, that way if you both can afford $700 a month, then you could look for a place that is $1400 a month and thus a lot nicer.

Thats what I did when I lived in that condo in keefer place, there was no way I could afford that place by myself, it was $1800 a month, but with 2 roomates it was only $700 for me (i paid an extra $100 as I had the larger bedroom with a private bath).

In fact you might even want to look at that condo, when I lived there, there was always places being rented out, I lived in 3 different units in the place.
