Hi all, I'm a college student here and You can expect to pay around $1,192 for rent here. There's a real sense of community in certain neighborhoods. The parks and outdoor areas are a huge plus.

I've lived in Springfield for about 13 years now, so I can give you a pretty detailed perspective.
it's improved dramatically in recent years. When I first moved here from Chicago, I was surprised by food scene. It took some adjustment but now I wouldn't trade it.
A few things worth knowing:
- Lots of new development happening
- Close to major attractions
- The school system scene is excellent
The downsides:
- Not very walkable outside downtown
- Road conditions need improvement
Overall I'd rate it 9/10 for singles. Would recommend to anyone considering it..
