Apartments for Rent Near University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill
Having opened its doors in 1795, UNC Chapel Hill is one of the oldest public universities in the United States, and has spent centuries building a reputation as a top-notch academic institution. Forming one of the corners of North Carolina’s famed Research Triangle (along with Duke and NC State), UNC’s reputation for research excellence is only matched by its legendary Tar Heels athletics program, particularly basketball. The university is also of the key cultural hubs for the region, with thriving communities of artists, musicians, and actors both on-campus and off.
Chapel Hill is widely regarded as one of the best college towns in the country. The UNC campus sits right at the center of the fairly small city, making it easy to walk from a classroom building to one of the countless eateries along Franklin Street. The nightlife just off campus is legendary, with popular bars bearing cheeky names like The Library and He’s Not Here.
The walkable environment leads many to seek apartments and houses near the west corner of campus at the intersection of Franklin and Columbia Streets, although folks seeking easier access to the School of Medicine or the UNC Hospital may want to seek living arrangements further south along Columbia.
