Best for Grad Students

Great for graduate students, more affordable 9th street option and a strong community.

Well located property

Station 9 is a huge apartment complex on ninth street. Since more than 90% Fuquans stay in / around ninth street area, this is a good location. The rent is on the costlier side for sure, considering that the building / amenities are not the latest. For a 2-year stay, it's a good deal though.

Good social life and convenient location

The location is good - surrounded by some other new apartments and the 24-hours grocery store Harris Teeters. The drive to school is about 10 minutes. You can also take a bus to school. It is easy to find people to share an Uber together for school.

A lot of MBA students stays in Station Nine or nearby. So the social life is really good. But it also makes the rent a bit pricey. I think the utilities and club facilities in Station Nine are basic but they are charging a high price for it.

The apartments are generally very spacious.

Convenient to hang out with friends

Most of the MBA students living in nine street area. It's easier to hang out with friends, schedule meetings and borrowing daily supplement from your friends. H5 bus brings you directly to Fuqua.

Uncertainty at S9 w/ New Management

Station Nine (S9) is in a great area and many people live in the community, greatly raising its value. However, the complex amenities, management service, and apartment fixtures are not really worth the price. There will be new management soon, which plans to update many of the amenities and fixtures, but I don't know the timetable for that to happen, and in the meantime, I expect an increase in rent. There are several other complexes in the area that I would consider before choosing S9, but if you are single and enjoy loudly hanging out with friends, then it might be the perfect place for you.

You get what you pay for

Very good overall, best value in the area. Not nearly as nice or well furnished as Berkshire 9 or Berkshire Main.

Overrated

The prices are overrated, however, this is where the majority of Fuquans live (S9/B9 area). If I had another chance, I would consider looking at the prices at Berkshire Main

Not great, not bad

The best perk of living at S9 is that you will share a complex with many of your classmates. My apartment itself has tons of light and high ceilings, but is a bit dated. If I didn't live here I would live at B9, but as a FY MBA student you can't go wrong at S9.

Expensive for Durham, NC but nice facilities

The facilities are relatively nice and I have enjoyed my time at Station Nine, although I do think the rent is incredibly overpriced. The Clubhouse is a bit small so if you're trying to crank out some work or hang out with friends over coffee - Berkshire Ninth or the Berkshire Main apartment complexes are better suited.

Ninth Street Reviews

264 reviews
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!
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.
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!
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.
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.
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.
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.
