The Battalion GGIELIFE Thursday * July 16, Housing Continued from Page 3 "I like living in Bryan," she said. "Off of Harvey road there is so much traffic and so much commotion. I enjoy the peace fulness of Bryan. The apart ments between the two cities are also the same. In College Station they may look better on the out side, but that is superficial. The inside of both are the same." Coulthurst said many people have complaints about Bryan, but she finds it to be cheaper. "It was much easier for me to find an apartment in Bryan, because most people choose College Station," she said. "College Station is more expen sive. The utilities and apartments in Bryan are a lot cheaper. "Some say that it is too far from campus but they are just making a big deal about that," Coulthurst said. "This is Bryan- College Station not Houston where it would take an hour to get anywhere. It might take you a little more time, but how much more? About five min utes. It all comes down to what you need and what you want." There are many solutions to the lack-of-residency problems in Aggieland, and students have to be willing to search and to look at other possibili ties. If no apartment can be found, the dorm solution always is an option.
