Westchester County sits just north of New York City and includes Sarah Lawrence, Manhattanville, Iona, and Pace University's Pleasantville campus, spread across several distinct towns. Student housing is more suburban than at the city campuses, with rentals clustered in the towns surrounding each school. Most students start their search a year in advance, and leases typically run either 10 or 12 months depending on the landlord.
Frequently Asked Questions
When should I look for off-campus housing?
Most students start their search a year in advance. The biggest wave of leasing happens August through November, with a second wave running January through March. Apartments in the most popular student neighborhoods fill quickly, so the earlier you start touring, the more options you'll have.
What neighborhoods do students usually live in?
Sarah Lawrence students often rent in Bronxville, Yonkers, and the surrounding villages near the campus. Manhattanville students typically live in Purchase, Harrison, and Rye near that campus. Iona students cluster in New Rochelle close to the school. Pace's Pleasantville campus draws students renting in Pleasantville, Mount Kisco, and nearby Westchester towns. Many Westchester students also live in the Bronx or further down the Metro-North line for cheaper rent and closer access to NYC.
Are utilities typically included in rent?
It depends on the landlord — every property is different. Some rentals include water and trash, others bundle in heat or internet, and many leave all utilities separate. Always confirm exactly what is included before signing, and ask for a recent utility average if heat or electricity is not covered.
Are leases 10 months or 12 months?
Both are common — it depends on the landlord. Twelve-month leases run the full calendar year and are typical for annual rentals, while ten-month leases align with the academic year for students who go home over the summer. Always check the exact lease start and end dates before signing.
Is Empire Off Campus free to use?
Yes — browsing listings and contacting landlords is completely free. There is no signup required, no application fees, and no middlemen. You reach out directly to the landlord by email or phone.
