Affordable places to live within 10-30 minutes of UConn Storrs?

Hi, I’m looking for affordable housing near UConn Storrs. I’ve noticed that apartments very close to campus are a bit expensive, so I’m wondering what areas people recommend within about 10-30 minutes of campus.

Ideally, I’m looking for a private studio or 1-bedroom apartment, and having laundry available would be a big plus. My budget is around $1,200/month, though I could go a little higher if the place is worth it. I don’t mind living farther from campus if there is reliable transportation to UConn.

Are there any towns, apartment complexes, or areas that you would recommend checking out? Thanks!
