hi I am a 24yr old single female. I earn currently 12 an hour, i work 5 days a week from 9-5. and I am shacked up in with a freind and his family in an apartment thats 2 bedroom. I stay here rent free cause they are doing me a huge favor until i can find else where to live.I really want to move out. and wanted to know what are my options based on my income level. basically do any one have any information on/about affordable rentals for individuals such as myself?besides shared rooms.let me know thanksthanks

since you make 12 an hour, i would say you should just shop around for an apartment, find the area that you would like to live in and compare rates for a one bedroom...good luck on your place:)

Sounds like you make about $25,000 per year, or little over $2,000 per month. You should be able to afford about a third of that on rent, or about $700/month. You'll need about two months rent saved up (for 1st month's rent plus deposit), or about $1,400.Rents vary a lot from area to area, but if you can find a 1-bedroom or studio apartment for about $700/month, then you should be able to get your own apartment if:1) you have at least $1,400 or more saved up2) you've been working steadily at your job for at least a year3) you don't have really bad delinquencies on your credit report.Check out Craigslist online for apartments in your area - good luck.

A lot depends on where you live - apartment prices in LA or NYC are very different than, say, Dubuque Iowa. See what apartments go for in your area, then make a budget and see if you can afford one and still have money left for other things you need. If not, you'd have to look into finding a roommate.
