why it ranked: MODERN LIVING delivers the full package for close-to-campus living: it's literally a three-minute walk from MIAD, packed with generous space and aesthetic amenities like a sleek gym, and staffed by people who actually care. Mary from maintenance is a standout residents consistently mention how quick, kind, and genuinely helpful she is and the management team communicates clearly when bigger issues come up. The views are genuinely spectacular, especially at sunset, and the building's glass windows and spacious bedrooms make it feel open and inviting. As one resident put it, "The best building near campus! Glass windows are huge, gym is aesthetic & bedrooms are big." When proximity, aesthetics, and real human care all line up, you've got something special.
