I know this is Des Moines, but I figured I'd give it a shot.

I'm moving to Ames in the fall because I'm going to ISU and I'd like to avoid having to pay for a one bedroom apartment. Does anyone know someone there that needs a roommate? I'm clean, quiet, and easy to get along with. If anyone knows anything, e-mail me at jessep319@hotmail.com. I'd really appreciate it!

Hey, me and chris are moving up to Ames in the fall too. We are going up there next Saturday to look at places. Ill probably see you tonight if you are interested in living with a couple of ok dudes and want to talk about it. Collectively we have a pretty good record collection and I'll be there with musical instruments if you want to jam. And rent would be a lot cheaper. Think about it!

Jordan, do you live or hang out in some apartments in Sherman Hill? If so, I waved at you. If not, I waved at your twin.

This would be awesome, I'm more than down.

When are you guys planning on moving there?

That was me. You looked like you were really unsure about it all but decided to wave anyways. Sarah lives in that building. I told her I though you waved at me and she said that a Lambert lives there and I was like ohhhhhhhhhhhh

Well, we are going up to Ames Saturday to look for what is available. We hope to try to sign a lease for August 1st or so. Do you have any specific needs, wants, not wants?

Basically both of us would prefer to NOT live directly in the middle of campus town, some-what outside the craziness of it all. We would prefer a small house or duplex, something with a garage, cat/pet friendly, maybe a basement. Those things could be worked out. But I have a cat I am not willing to part with so the biggest concern is that you can have pets and it isn't a million dollars. Let me know if you have any specific wants and things and we can work shit out! This could be a fun fun time.

that's the place. i assume it'd be rented for next year by now but that wouldn't be too bad of a place too live.

Look for stuff west of campus- West St., Story St., etc. It's close to campus but not in the college-y campus areas. There are a lot of small houses and duplexes. But good luck finding a 3 br place at this time.

I'm not very particular. As long as it's within reasonable distance from the campus and isn't a complete shithole, I'll be fine haha.

I was checking this website out and they have some places you guys should look into.
