👍🏽

Coming from a high-cost market, I am happy with the square footage and price though know that peers can easily find more space for less money. Station 9 is convenient, given the amount of Fuqua students who live here.

S9 - good for the people, bad for value

Apartment is fine. Berkshire 9 is better.

S9 ain't horrible

S9 is good about fixing your stuff when it's broken. It's not a terrible place to live, and not as loud as you hear it is. Don't even think about living here with children. They offer summer rent to some people and not others which is kind of ridiculous.

Excellent location

Station 9 is a great place to live. It is convenient as most of your class will be living at S9 or in adjacent areas (Berkshire 9 or Berkshire Main). Across the street, you have Harris Teeter, a 24 hour grocery store. The bank and the duke bus stop is also very close-by.

Perfect for b-school

The place we're in is a 2/2 with plenty of natural light on the top floor and back side of station nine. We get little noise save the occasional party or dog, and are generally pleased with the unit. I've found maintenance to be extremely responsive and friendly and the front desk staff to be (mostly) friendly and helpful.

Its perfect for b-school at Fuqua because of its proximity to everyone else in the program - note that its basically an upscale dorm at this point.

By biggest complaints would be the passive-aggressive emails sent from management, the lack-luster gym, and the price of the unit. Buy hey... supply/demand right?

S9

Station 9 is nice but it's not as nice as the rent is high. The walls are very thin, and the maintenence is somewhat condescending. Our AC didn't work for half the summer, and they would come to fix it, but not do anything. The management has been helpful in helping us, but not that effective.

Great for Graduate students

Station Nine is a great place for graduate students at Duke. It's close to campus, has a great vibe and spacious apartments. Though their units aren't in the newest conditions, it's good for a year or two. It's proximity to grocery stores, bars and restaurants can't be beat.

Paying to be with other students

Apartment is decent, but probably a little overpriced.

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.
