Choosing off-campus housing at UB comes down to one question: live near North Campus if most of your classes are on North Campus, and near South Campus if they aren't. Purpose-built complexes in Amherst list from $889/mo at Block20 and $969/mo at The Station Buffalo, while a shared room at Collegiate Village Apartments goes for $704 per person.

Winter is the most expensive season to rent in Iowa City, and heat is only part of it. MidAmerican Energy's typical Iowa residential natural gas bill is $58.49 a month under the rates it filed in July 2026, up about 5% from $55.60 — and that is an annual average, so January runs higher. Add the city's snow emergency ordinance, where parking on the wrong side means a $50 ticket plus towing at your expense.
