About Student Housing in Pullman
Pullman is one of the most isolated college towns in the West, built almost entirely around Washington State University. The population swings dramatically with the academic calendar — about 33,000 with students vs. roughly 14,000 without — and the rhythm of the city follows WSU's lease cycle and football season. The Palouse hills give the area its character: rolling wheat country, dramatic in the fall, snowy and bitter from December through February. Pullman compensates for the isolation with affordability — shared apartments near WSU run $400–$650/month per person, well below most West Coast college towns. The biggest practical thing to know is that Spokane is the closest real city at 90 minutes north, and Moscow, Idaho is 8 miles east — your weekend trips and your airport runs happen on these two corridors.
Best Neighborhoods for Students in Pullman
College Hill
The densest residential zone, immediately west of WSU's campus. Walkable to campus, dense with student apartments, Greek houses, and converted rentals. Most of Pullman's social and academic life happens within or near College Hill — fills first in the spring leasing cycle.
Pine Street / Downtown Pullman
Walking distance from campus and Pullman's bar and restaurant strip. Older houses converted to student rentals dominate, mixed with a small but real downtown commercial core along Main Street. Popular with upperclassmen who want more character than the College Hill complexes.
Military Hill
North of campus, residential, quieter, and a step removed from the student housing intensity. Single-family homes and smaller buildings. Popular with grad students, married students, and locals who prefer a calmer environment.
