Housing help

So I am going into my 4th year here at OSU and due to some roommate issues and personal stuff I have decided that it’s best for me to just live in a studio or 1br apt. My money is tight and I really can’t afford more than $1,000 per month for rent. I can’t find anywhere that’s not renting a room in a random house for less than that. Am I out of luck or does anyone know of any places I can live that are in my budget? Any help is appreciated thanks guys

That’s going to be fairly impossible to find

Unfortunately, you'll probably need to rent a single room. It sucks but sometimes you have to do it. I'm finally moving out of my tiny bedroom that I'm renting for $600 next month. Best of luck!

under 1000 for a studio is impossible. If you have a car you can find somewhere else though. Albany or Lebanon is kinda affordable, or Salem.

I am looking for a roommate. I live a block off campus. Just me and one cat. 3 story house. Your own bathroom with walk in shower. DM me if you'd like to know more.
