The way to look for an apartment in a good school district



  1. Ok, this is how I am doing now, searching a good school district for Sunny, just in case you need it. First, lock the area you want to move, south, west, east or north. Then, go to http://www.schooldigger.com/ to find all the schools in that area, type in the zip code in "find a school" box, there are a lot of schools listed there with different rank. Also you can go to http://www.greatschools.org/ to find more informations of the schools you are interested in. Choose the school you want to go, then go to http://www.apartmentguide.com/ or www.rent.com (if you choose the apartment qualified to earn $100 reward card, that would be very nice), enter the zip code which the school locates, all avalible apartments listed there, but not all of them are in that school district. So what you have to do is go to http://www.bcps.org/apps/boundaries/ and type in the address of the apartment to find out if it is in that school district. You can print the list or write down all the apartments information, because they are too much information so you need to mark them and for later on narrow the information and visit them in person. Last, also very important, while you select the apartments, you have to go to www.apartmentratings.com to look some reviews from other tenants before you go there. If most of them didn't recommend it, so you don't need to waste your time. Wish it helps you!
