Great for the convenience

If you are single, want the social life, want to be close to school, don't mind paying a bit extra for all of the above... then this is the perfect place! Not as hefty of a price tag as B-Main or B-9, yet still enjoy all the perks. Also, pretty convenient you can meet your classmates just down the hallway.

Only thing to be cautious about is which apartment to live in - if you don't want to be in the middle of it all, make sure you live far away from the pool/clubhouse/leasing office area.

Station Nine - great convenience, poor amenities & management

The location is ideal for location/convenience but frustrating with regard to its layout and management. The building itself is difficult to navigate. The building underwent painting and construction for the majority of the year, increased rent, and initiated new charges for small regulations. I'd recommend looking into the newer apartment buildings to find a more valuable offering.

S9

Very comfortable, but S9 apartments are a little bit old. The management of the building is very effective, and they respond fast to any problem that could come up

Station Nine is good for students, not necessarily young families.

Station Nine is super convenient for Fuqua students--most of my team lives here and it's easy to get together. I live on the quiet corner of the building, so it is easy to get away from the noise from the pool if you need. If you're looking for a place for a young toddler, probably not the best for you, given that sound carries and some parties can be disruptive (not terribly!).

Not the best apartment but surrounded of your classmates

Station Nine is definitely not the best apartment. They are very inflexible in many things (for example they won't reduce the rent while you are at your internship with your apartment inhabited) and it is expensive for what they offer.
However, most MBA students keep staying here so it is the most convenient place to be if you're single or like to go out.
Harris Teeter one block away and The Tavern 4 blocks away are also some of the benefits of station nine.

Not equitable for the North Carolina area

Other places are nicer for the price point paid at S9.

Neighborhood has been great. Haven't been commuting to school all that frequently for obvious reasons, but takes less than 10 minutes to do so. I can grab everything I need and meet with friends all within walking distance. Durham could use more street lights in general, but in terms of safety, I think 9th street is your best option!
Reviewed by Fuqua MMS Student living at Station Nine
Best place to live hands down. Next to the supermarket, so many food options and many complexes in the area. Near downtown and Duke. Great if you’re new in town because it is super safe. Perfect if you have a car because the only downside is that depending on what Duke school you’re in it might not be walking distance.
Reviewed by Fuqua MBA Student living at 810 Ninth Street
Ninth Street is super walkable and majority of Fuquans live in the area. Definitely worth it to pay a little more to live in walking distance of so many classmates. Plus the restaurants on Ninth Street are great, and a short walk (~3 mins) to East Campus to use the walking trail!
Reviewed by Fuqua MBA Student living at 810 Ninth Street
Everything is close: other complexes like S9, B9; bars like flying bull, the tavern, supermarkets like Harris Teeter or Whole Foods, East campus hiking route.

You can get to the school by bus (45 mi) or by car (10 min). Carpooling is very commom.

Neighborhood is fine. All the Duke grad students live in the same area so it makes for a pleasant student community, and there are some decent restaurants and grocery stores within walking distance.
Reviewed by Fuqua MBA Student living at 810 Ninth Street
Harris Teeter and Whole Foods are right nearby, and the area feels generally safe. 5 min from the highway if you need to drive outside of Durham. ~10 min to get to the WaDuke/Science Drive.
Reviewed by Fuqua MBA Student living at Station Nine
The 9th St. neighborhood is great because it is within walking distance to all of the shops and restaurants on 9th St. It could be better if it were closer to Fuqua and/or downtown Durham.
Reviewed by Fuqua MBA Student living at 810 Ninth Street
All the restaurants around the 9th street area are within 5 mins walk from the complex. The campus is an 8-10 minute drive. Downtown Durham is also an 8-10 minute drive away.
