Academy housing with covered parking

tinpusher Rookie Salt Lake City, Ut

I've been looking for a good place to live while at the academy, I really want a place that has covered parking for my car. So far I've found Walnut Gardens, but that is about it. Does anyone else have suggestions? I'll be leaving in a couple of weeks so I really need to get some place reserved.

Meridian Mansions is a nice dump but have covered parking.

Or stay at a place that isnt a shithole and bring a tarp......

Walnut Gardens is not a great place to be. If you are worried about your car I would stay in a better place. There is a gate, but have heard about cars getting broken into still. Good luck and try to get a room on the top floor!

My buddy stayed at Walnut Gardens last month for RTF and said it sucked

I'm been reading a lot of posts on here about certain areas not being safe, cars getting broken into, etc. Are the surrounding areas really that bad or are all these very isolated incidents. I'm from Miami, so I use to the high crime rate, but if I have to go to this shithole(OKC) and get my car broken into, I'm going to be hot!!!

Any advice or where/where not to go/live?

In general, the areas west and south of the airport are the newest/safest.

Is Fairways in a good area?
