Nice one-bedroom apartment

810 is a good apartment complex and I have a nice one-bedroom apartment. There is not a ton of space but there are nice amenities including a gym, pool, and parking.

Unsustainable prices

Convenient location and decent amenities.

However, its cost has ballooned tremendously in the past year making it no longer worth its added benefits. The windows are also thin, so poor noise insulation.

My experience living at 810 for two years

810 is a newer complex on Ninth street. It's an immaculate and organized community. The amenities are great. It's within walking distance of everything on the Ninth street. This can be a con or a pro, depending on you. The management is very strict with everything starting from how many people you can have as a guest, not having any gatherings in the building without management permission, etc. Also, it's pretty apparent that the whole apartment is made of wood, so you can hear your upstairs neighbor all the time. The parking garage is a maze and everyone drive around it like a maniac. Whoever came up with the parking design should be awarded the designer of the decade! The big question is that is it the apartment worth the current asking price that management believes it's fair to ask. I would say no, for sure. The apartment complexes on Ninth street are aware that Duke graduate students prefer to live in these apartments, and as a result they're increasing prices yearly.

Great apartment (clean, nice and chill)

Great apartment for people who want to be close to social events, but not in the middle of it all. At 810 I am two blocks away from the party building (S9) but have much more privacy and tranquility.
Also, the majority of Fuqua MBAs are on 9th st (S9, B9, and 810) so you are within walking distance for gatherings, and people are very generous in offering carpool rides (there is a slack channel where people ask and offer rides to and from school, airport, etc).
A significant benefit of 810 is that, unlike the other big buildings, apartments open to a closed hallway (you are not cold during winter), and it reduces the chances of you having cockroaches (the main reason I chose 810).
The 810 building is much smaller than S9 and B9, which I like because people don't get lost trying to find my apartment, and it doesn't take me forever to leave the building.

Final note, I live in a studio apartment, but it is pretty big for a studio apartment. It has a separation, a half wall between the "bedroom area" and "living area + kitchen".

Great facilities and staff

Excellent facilities and staff. The one thing I don’t like is the mandatory cable and trash valet. The trash valet service is terrible and just adds to an already expensive rent.

Clean and safe building w/ an amazing management team

The management team is very friendly and they make sure the community is having a great time. I haven’t heard anything suspicious or dangerous at 810 so far, but because the complex is close to a fire station, you will see and hear a lot of fire trucks and ambulances rushing to scenes. 810 is close to bus stops, Harris Teeter, Whole Foods, etc., so you will be fine if you don’t have a car.

810 9th

810 9th is a great place to live-- there aren't any major red flags I'd mention because the management is kind, responsive, and helpful and the units are clean and well maintained. One thing I would say is that the walls to the outside are thin- you can hear every car, conversations from the sidewalk below, etc. through the walls facing the streets.

Just close enough, just far enough

I'd say that of all the 9th St. options (B9, S9, Erwin Mills, BMain) that 810 is probably the most premium option. Then again, I'd say you get what you pay for. The apartment complex is generally quiet, the amenities are nice, and the appliances are up to date. It's a very easy complex to navigate and has a pretty solid gym. Packages are delivered to an amazon locker and you don't have to be concerned about packages being taken in a mail room. The pool is quieter too if you're considering facing the pool. Also, management is super responsive. I've never had a problem.

Great if you want to live @ 9th Street!

I thought my apartment was going to feel small, but the space is just right for me and my husband! Our apt view is towards the dog park (Green St.), no problem with noise but natural light during winter can be limited some days.
Compared to other places in Durham, 9th street alternatives are expensive. However, the location is great if you are an MBA student (single or with a partner - no kids). If you don't plan on having/buying a car, it might be your best choice. I do feel 810 is the best option among 9th street alternatives!

9th Street is a fun, social area for Duke MBA students. It's where a lot of them live, and all of us go out, so it's fun to be in such a social area where all friends are just a short walk away (sometimes not even outside the building!). There are great nice and fast-casual restaurants around too. It's not the cutest neighborhood, but I found it more valuable to be where my future classmates would be living.
I have never felt unsafe in my neighborhood, even running by myself at different times of the day. I feel like people are generally kind and friendly, and it is very close to school. It feels very clean and is generally pretty quiet besides the train.
It is an excellent neighborhood mostly because of proximity to everything - from your friends, to grocery stores, to your hair shop!
Convenient location to other students -- it's easiest to catch rides to and from campus from 9th street. There is not good public transportation in Durham, so convenient location to other students and campus is key if you don't have a car. If you don't have a car, I highly encourage you to choose an apartment on 9th street.
Ninth Street is a great location! You are close to a grocery store, really good restaurants, and within a 5 minute drive from campus. My safety has never felt threatened here.
It is extremely close to a grocery store. It doesn't get better than that.
Lots of students, walking distance to Harris Teeter and some shops.
The 9th Street area is definitely where you want to live as a Duke student if you can afford it! All the restaurants and stores are less than a block from the complex.
