Which side of campus is best to live on?+
Old Taylor Road (southeast) is the leafy, newer-construction side — past Rowan Oak, quick to the law school and South Campus. West Jackson Avenue is the errands-and-amenities side — Galleria retail, Baptist Memorial Hospital, and Highway 6 access that reaches campus in about five minutes.
Can you live near Ole Miss without a car?+
Near-campus corridors are covered by the Oxford-University Transit (OUT) bus system, and the South Campus Rail Trail gives a car-free ride to the university's south side. Most residents still keep a car for groceries — communities here include ample parking, with carports at Lexington Pointe and attached garages at Faulkner Flats.
How close are these apartments to Vaught-Hemingway Stadium on game day?+
All four communities sit 4-10 minutes from the stadium in normal traffic, but outside the game-day closure zone — close enough to walk out of the Grove, far enough that your parking spot survives all seven home Saturdays.
What do apartments near Ole Miss cost?+
Current inventory near campus runs $1,625-$1,900 for one-bedrooms, $1,775-$2,150 for two-bedrooms, and up to $3,200 for a four-bedroom/four-bath — about $800 per person. See the full Oxford rent report for the corridor-by-corridor picture.
