Playgrounds and Childcare
Families are an important part of SUV. That's why we provide four playgrounds, and sandboxes throughout the SUV community. There's also an on-site day care and preschool (University Community Childcare). The older children of SV residents attend the Ames school district - they can catch the school bus from several stops within SUV.
Rent and Utilities - One of the lowest rates in town!
Rent is conveniently charged to your Ubill monthly and includes the following utilities: water, garbage, cable and high-speed DSL internet service. Electricity is billed monthly by the University and gas (for heating and cooking) must be contracted with Alliant Energy. A prepayment is required of newly admitted undergraduate residents, but this will be applied to your January rent.
Dining
Meal plans are encouraged, but not required in SUV. Many residents say they shop and dine at the Hawthorn Market and Café, located in the Frederiksen Court Community Center.
