1 bedroom apartments in Morgantown

January 4th, 2010

Are you looking for a 1 bedroom apartment in Morgantown?
privacy
If so, you’re likely looking forward to privacy and not having to stress about others paying their part of the rent.

But before you write off the idea of roommates just yet, it’s important to understand what you’re getting into when you decide to look at 1 bedroom apartments.

Here’s the lowdown about 1 bedroom apartments in Morgantown:



They can be expensive, lonely and less safe

Have you ever cooked a meal for 1? Not only is it challenging to get the portion small enough, it can be expensive.
spaghetti
Food can spoil quickly if you don’t have the cooking-for-1 science down. To avoid spoilage, you usually have to make multiple trips to the grocery store a week, and who has the will or the time for that?

Living with others allows you to cook more feasible portions and even better, allows you to split the grocery bill. (It also gives you the added bonus of having an excuse to have dinner parties!) However, you may run the risk of a hungry roommate eating the entire bag of chips one night. Having one large community fridge and a small mini fridge for your off-limits groceries can help.

When you live alone, the privacy and freedom to walk around in your birthday suit is nice, but sometimes the silence becomes oppressive (and as a result, you may start talking to yourself). Living with others provides excellent company (and if you do talk to yourself, you can pretend you were talking to one of your roommates). 85833083

It is also nice to have a sympathetic ear to come home to. Plus, if you ever lock yourself out, you can call a roommate, not a locksmith to let you in—much more convenient.

On a similar thread and perhaps most importantly, living alone is not just lonely, but less safe than when you live with others. “Safety in numbers” is a saying for a reason.

The expenses grow when you consider the price of the rent for 1 bedroom apartments in Morgantown.



Price range

Money in handThe typical price range of 1 bedroom apartments in Morgantown ranges from $485 to $900. Meanwhile, the average price for 1 bedroom apartments in Morgantown is about $700.

For all the money you shell out, you usually don’t get any perks either. No shuttles, no pool or fitness center.



Utilities

Those that live in 1 bedroom apartments usually have to worry about paying for cable and Internet. These utilities can be very pricey and burdensome if not split up amongst a few people. These utilities aren’t necessities, necessarily, but for many in today’s world, they certainly feel like it.

Meanwhile, the typical utility bills, e.g. water, electric and gas, can also leave you aching. Sure, the more people who live in a place, the higher these bills are, but split up, the bills are always less per person than when you live alone.

You may be willing to make the above sacrifices for the sake of privacy and decorating freedom, but perhaps living with others is starting to sound like a better plan.

There’s an alternative

Consider living in 1 room at West Run Apartments in Morgantown, in either a 3 bedroom or 4 bedroom apartment. The pricing is an affordable $435 per person for theliving room 4 bedroom apartments and $475 per person for the 3 bedroom apartments.

You won’t have to share a room, so you can still get privacy when you want or need it. Each private bedroom comes with a walk-in closet and a private bathroom, so you don’t have to worry about dealing with a dirty or neat-freak roommate, depending on your preference.

No need to hold your roommates accountable for paying rent either, as leases are individual. Don’t have any roommates? West Run Apartments also offers a roommate matching service.

Included perks aplenty:

  • Free utilities
  • kitchen west run

  • Free, private Internet and cable with HBO & 50 music stations

Follow these tips to stay safe at West Run in Morgantown

December 5th, 2009

Unfortunately, college towns like Morgantown suffer from theft problems because of their vulnerable student population. No matter what apartment in Morgantown you’re living in, you have to make sure you stay safe and protected.

We at West Run want you and your possessions to be kept safe at all times.

While we will continue to do our part, we ask that you please follow the following important tips to remain safe:

  1. Lock your apartment’s deadbolt, always. Do not be careless. Even if you are just going down the hall, even for a moment, take your keys and lock it up!
  2. Shut your blinds. Don’t tempt passersby. Don’t leave your contents on display.
  3. Report suspicious behavior; do not hesitate. Call the office (304-599-1907) or the CA on duty (304-904-8536), if anyone is trying to sell something in your building, or looks suspicious! West Run is a private property, which means solicitations are prohibited.

Always call 911 with any emergencies!

Following the above tips will help you stay safe at West Run in Morgantown.
