I'm in a college town, so... it varies wildly. You could probably rent a crack shack 10 miles from campus for basically nothing.

The floor for rent at a "decent" place is probably at least a grand. Actually buying a house? Who the fuck knows, but it'll definitely be obscene.

My university-owned apartment is $600 with a roommate, which is honestly a pretty good deal considering that utilities (including gigabit Ethernet!) are included.
