If you’re a student in the dorms at UW-Whitewater fantasizing about the day you’ll have your very-first college apartment—and won’t have to do that awkward shuffle down the hall to your RA’s room in your towel and flipflops because you locked yourself out again—just know that your time will be here sooner than you think. By “sooner than you think,” we mean that you should already be searching for your next place right about now. You wouldn’t think it when you look at little ole Whitewater, but the off-campus housing search can get pretty competitive—like, more competitive than when Sports Team 1 and Sports Team 2 face-off in a game of sports.
Most students at Whitewater start searching for their next apartment or house a full year in advance. We did a bit of digging and found that there’s a huge surge in searches for Whitewater apartments and houses starting in September and continuing through October. So, if you’ve had your eye on a certain house on Tratt or downtown Whitewater apartment, do yourself a favor and call the landlord for a showing sooner rather than later. Chances are someone else has their eye on the sample place as you.
The kind of place you’re looking for will also play a role in how quickly you need to get your butt in gear on finding a place. If you’re looking for a UWW apartment, you can hold off starting your search until late September. But, if you’re looking for a house in Whitewater near campus, you should start searching as soon as possible. Houses for rent in Whitewater, WI don’t stay for rent long, especially if you’re trying to land one of the houses on Tratt, Main, or close to downtown. The moral of the story is that the early bird/Warhawk gets the worm.
Fortunately for you, apartments and houses for rent in Whitewater, WI are actually pretty darn affordable. Sure, there are a couple of pricey rentals on the market, but as long as do your due diligence in your search you’re going to be able to score an affordable rental. Keep in mind that there are a couple of ways to save yourself some cash.
The main way to save yourself money on rent every month is to team up with a couple of friends and rent a place together. Sure, sometimes your roommates will steal your leftover Rosa’s pizza, but by living with them you’ll be saving hundreds of dollars every semester on rent. Plus, the more people there are to split the cost of utilities and groceries, the cheaper it’ll be for you.
If you absolutely refuse to have a roommate or two, know that living on your own is the most expensive living option available by far. So, unless you’ve got an “in” with a landlord, you’re going to be paying a pretty penny for a studio or one-bedroom apartment in Whitewater.

Whitewater is a pretty small town, but that doesn't mean there's nothing to do when you're not in class! During the warmer months, you can go explore Starin Park or go for a hike on one of the trails near campus. If the outdoors aren't really you're thing, you can head to Downtown Whitewater to visit the local shops.
Pro Tip: Head to the Sweet Spot cafe for a morning breath bagel & coffee before you go wandering around town.
If you feel like you've spent enough time in town, make take the day to go somewhere new - Janesville is only about 30 minutes away and Madison is only about an hour (depending on how fast you're driving). If you have the whole day to do whatever, we suggest to heading to Madison since it's a bigger town and there's more to do.
