The university offers a housing service to match members of the university community with renters seeking roommates and with local landlords with spaces to rent of lease, some of whom may appreciate the maturity, skills and/or knowledge of post-doc scholars. Note that, in some cases, families in the local area may be open to negotiating lesser rents in exchange for bartered services such as tutoring for a homeowner's children, language instruction, or light-duty care.
