I was really mad when the current students talked about how Post is the "law school dorm" and then said that rent was $750/m. Yes, last year the rent was $750. This August it will be about $950/m.
Traffic considered, it's not close to the school, and it's in the opposite direction from all the nightlife. You can get apartments for the same price that are just as nice, if not nicer, and in much better locations.
But, I think the issue is that people just don't think about stuff like that much after they've already signed their lease, because it's honestly not a big deal. If you asked me where to live in [my city], I would have listed about 5 or 6 neighborhoods without really knowing anything about the lease rates, property management, etc.
I'm upset with Emory for not releasing anything about Career Services as well, but honestly, the information is available online. The top third will land biglaw jobs, and if you are in the top 40%, you still have a pretty decent shot, especially if you have a connection.
