April 12, 201610 yr What are the new popular websites to search for apartments in Chicago, specifically in Wrigleyville?? We have been listing our place on Domu for a while with success, but it seems to have dried up. I don't really wanna go back to CraigsList, I had enough of the anonymity and creepiness.
April 12, 201610 yr Padma paper but it's an agregate. Craigslist is still the best IMO. Are you selling?
April 12, 201610 yr Author Thanks guys. QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Apr 12, 2016 -> 12:15 PM) Padma paper but it's an agregate. Craigslist is still the best IMO. Are you selling? Yeah, we both bought condos at the "height" of the market so we became part-time landlords and are re-renting out a condo. Craigslist used to be our go-to, but I feel like on the new websites people actually hold themselves accountable for their responses, CraigsList just gets weird sometimes.
April 12, 201610 yr This is a very long time ago, but I remember many friends planning their weeks around the release of each week's http://www.chicagoreader.com/ just for the new apartment listings.
April 12, 201610 yr Wow just found out that padmapper no longer includes craigslist listings, that hurts. But if you still want to use padmapper, do so here: http://www.padlister.com/listings/new Otherwise I would still use craigslist for sheer volume.

Most of friends already do that. Best place to look? You guys know anyone? Don't really know anywhere to look besides Craigslist. I'm in the same boat. Just got a job in Chicago. I'd prefer to have a roommate but none of my friends down there need one and I don't want to go the "random Craigslist" route.

Never ended up living with anyone from there, but it's always seemed like a solid site.
