text: where can i find a good and safe apartment for under 700 dollars? i am looking for a good and safe apartment for under 700 preferably near usf. can anyone help me? you answered your own question by asking it.  most housing near usf is around $700.  you can get a 1 bed for around $625 in springwood, i lived in oak ramble for a while and paid $575 for a 1 bed, you can sometimes find a 2 bed in the oaks for $700, there are 1 beds in campus walk for $575...you just need to go to the area directly north of campus, between 42nd and 46th street and start shopping, it's on the bus route, so that will also help if you don't have a car, or don't want to pay for a parking pass for campus
