Company Offers Affordable Uptown Rentals in Athens, great options in Columbus

Uptown colaAn important factor to consider when searching for off-campus housing in Athens Ohio is how much time you’ll spend each day walking to and from class and uptown. Most students with cars opt for that walk as well, since driving and parking uptown or close to campus can be a big hassle in Athens. If the thought of 20-minute walks, with much of it uphill, makes you cringe, you might want to consider renting one of Krause Rental Properties’ quality rentals close to OU and uptown Athens. The same applies for Krause’s student rentals in Columbus, in close proximity to the Ohio State campus. More on those later.

It’s hard to beat the convenience and excitement that living in or near uptown Athens can offer – not to mention the amount of time you’ll save by avoiding the daily hikes between campus and the more remote neighborhoods. Save your walking energy for the scenic areas surrounding Athens, such as The Ridges, the bike path and the hiking trails in the hills and ridges just north of the Far East Side.. For some students, too, it’s not just one back-and-forth trip to their Athens rental but two round trips and possibly even three, since the uptown nightlife is an irresistible magnet for students in the evenings (not to mention Alden Library and other academic reasons to head uptown).

Location, Location, Location…

Location is everything. When you rent in uptown Athens, you’re in the heart of it all, where all the action happens. Late for class? Campus is that much closer. Concerned about walking home at night? Home is just a couple blocks from the bar. Tired of walking up and down the hills for which Athens is so well known? Walking down Court Street couldn’t be easier. After hours at the end of an evening of uptown nightlife, the bed in your Athens rental is that much closer. Party weekends such as Halloween and Homecoming come right to your door. Most of our uptown apartments are relatively quiet once you’ve closed the door behind you. Get the most out of your college experience by being where the action happens, not a 20-minute hike to and from the middle of nowhere. In Columbus, the same sort of reasoning applies, with the OSU campus very close to most of our apartments in one direction. In the other direction is the North High Street commercial area, with its many restaurants, bars and shops that cater to college students. At the same time, living in your cool Columbus rental in a traditional off-campus housing neighborhoods, you can forget about the frenzy of schoolwork and nightlife.
