I have the option to live near the law school next year during 1L, either alone or with 2 roommates who are a 3L and a recent grad.
Prices for both options are within range.
The potential roommates seem pretty laid-back-- we're all randoms-- so if I lived with them it would be 2 girls and 1 guy total in a large house with our own bathrooms. Plus, I'll save a little money over living alone and have the potential benefit of living w/people who have already been through 1L and who may be able to help introduce me to others (read: possible summer job referrals and help adjusting to law school.)
On the other hand, I have lived alone during the last 2 years... and I like living alone. And the above posters advocate living alone... hmmm..... well, I do have a dog...
Any additional feedback or thoughts would be appreciated!!! Thanks again, GC Lawyers
