About Student Housing in Terre Haute
Terre Haute is a small city of approximately 59,000 residents situated on the eastern bank of the Wabash River in western Indiana, about 75 miles west of Indianapolis. The city serves as the home of Indiana State University, a public university with roughly 12,000 students, and Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology, a nationally recognized engineering school located on the east side of the city. This dual-university presence gives Terre Haute a college-town energy that supports a range of restaurants, coffee shops, and cultural events. The Wabash Valley's flat landscape makes biking and walking practical throughout much of the city, and Interstate 70 provides easy access to Indianapolis and to Illinois to the west. Terre Haute is one of the more affordable places to rent in Indiana, with housing costs well below those in Bloomington or West Lafayette, making it an attractive option for students and young professionals on a budget.
Best Neighborhoods for Students in Terre Haute
Campus Area West
The residential streets directly west and southwest of the ISU campus form the primary student housing district. This area offers the shortest commutes to class and a dense concentration of rental houses and small apartment buildings at affordable prices.
Sycamore Street Corridor
The stretch of Sycamore Street running through the student quarter is lined with rental houses, casual eateries, and convenience stores. It is one of the most popular addresses for ISU juniors and seniors who want walkable access to both campus and off-campus amenities.
Downtown Terre Haute
Wabash Avenue and the surrounding blocks form the city's entertainment district, with bars, restaurants, and concert venues clustered within a short distance of each other. Graduate students and upperclassmen who prefer a more urban feel often rent in apartments near downtown, which is about a 15-minute walk from the ISU campus.
