Great apartment!

B9 is very new and modern. I am so happy with my choice. The convenience of the location is also great. More and more people are choosing B9 so almost all of my close friends live there.

Great place. Watch out for hidden fees

The property and management are great and work orders are completed very quickly. Only thing to watch out for is hidden fees that they try to get you with in the beginning.

Solid spot

Overall B9 is a solid spot to live. Conveniently located and lots of Fuqua people live here which is fun. Also the dog park is legit.

Perfect location and quiet

Suggestion to live on fourth floor if possible to avoid hearing upstairs neighbors walking - ceilings are very thin.

Nice place in a convenient location

Probably not worth the extra money over similarly nice places like the lofts. Location is convenient. Apartments not well insulated from noise and recent new students have been noisier than before.

strong Fuqua community

Great place to live! Lots of Fuqua students around - which makes it a fun community. Easy to walk to many places and quick drive to Fuqua.

Reviewed by Fuqua MBA Student living at Station Nine
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.
Reviewed by Fuqua MBA Student living at Station Nine
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.
