Where students live
Belmont-Hillsboro and Hillsboro Village, plus 12 South — with cheaper options in Melrose, Edgehill, and Wedgewood-Houston.
There's essentially no purpose-built student housing aimed at Belmont: students rent conventional unfurnished market-rate apartments and shared houses at Nashville prices (roughly $1,400–$2,000+ for close-in 1BRs), which pushes most into roommate shares. Belmont runs an off-campus marketplace and a Preferred Partner program with local complexes.
