Student Housing in Auburn, AL
About Student Housing in Auburn
Auburn, Alabama is the textbook college town, a tidy city of around 80,000 that swells and quiets with Auburn University's calendar. The Tigers run the place, roughly 33,000 students who give downtown its energy and fill Jordan-Hare Stadium on fall Saturdays. Most students cluster within a mile or two of campus, in the downtown College Street core, along West Magnolia and South College, and out toward Glenn Avenue and Samford Avenue. When you want green space, there's Kiesel Park, Town Creek Park, and Chewacla State Park just south of town. Game days, concerts on the green, and a walkable downtown set the tone, and being a student renter here feels less like a side quest and more like the default way of life.
