When to Search

Rent In Philadelphia
Philadelphia has a wide variety of apartments available from expensive to very expensive. Fortunately, you'll often get your money's worth. The new apartments close to the Temple campus are very nice and well worth what you will pay. We have noticed the more roommates that you have can really help with the individual cost. On average per roommate, you add you can personally all save $100 each.
Roommates are known for making a mess and drinking the milk for your last bowl of cereal, so we totally understand if you want to live off-campus near Temple by yourself. Having your own space can come at a premium if you choose to have a single bedroom apartment. The best way to reassure you will have cereal is to find a studio, which on average is $200 cheaper than a single bedroom.

The 1800-acre park hosts 57 miles of trails winding through the valleys and Wissahickon Creek.

Attractions
Like call big cities, Philadelphia offers lots to do! For art lovers, check out the La Salle University Art Museum. Foodies can take part in a Chew Philly Food Tour (did someone say cheesesteaks?!). The Shrine of the Miraculous Medal is a must see for anyone interested in architecture. The Eastern State Penitentiary offers a glimpse into the country's past as the world's first true “penitentiary.”
Shopping
There’s not much shopping directly adjacent to the La Salle campus, but the King of Prussia Mall is a short half hour drive away - and is the top rated shopping mall in the city.
Nightlife
After a long day of school sometimes the best thing to do is relax. Temple has many great places to relax, but Beury Beach has to be one of the most popular. To socialize you can also take advantage of the bell tower or along the Liacouras walk to meet new people and see old friends.
Temple sporting events are a great way to make memories with friends and show off your school pride. Attending a Philadelphia Eagles football game may be out of your budget (and out of your interests if you didn't grow up an Eagles fan), but you can experience a Temple football game on the same Lincoln Financial Field.
Heading to center city can make for a great day of shopping, eating, and enjoying various events. A train leaves right from Temple's campus for a convenient trip to center city. Another trip worth making is to the Wells Fargo Center to see your favorite show or concert. Lastly, if you're not feeling like leaving campus the Reel on campus has great movies at only two dollars with a Temple ID.
