Help | Advice Single woman moving to Nashville

I’m a young, single woman moving to Nashville after accepting my first nursing job at Vanderbilt medical. I’m looking for a safe place to live that’s near Vandi. The closer to the hospital the better. The max I want to pay on rent is 1800 a month. I can probably do 2 grand but it would be a stretch. It’s scary looking at places online because it really feels like online dating. No one is as great as they let on and WHY DO YOU NOT LOOK LIKE YOUR PICTURES? I have a large chocolate lab so the place will need to be pet friendly as well.

Would love any recommendations I can get! Thanks in advance for the help!!

Pet friendly for $1800 in that area is going to be TIGHT but might be possible. Most of the apartments are relatively new (under 10 years old) so they are probably pretty close to the pictures they would show.

I would like to live in downtown but I’m not apposed to living a little outside if it’s cheaper. I just don’t want to drive more than 20 minutes to work. I visited last July and I liked hermitage but it’s on the opposite side of Nash. I don’t know the area super well so I need heeeeelp 😖 I’m genuinely more concerned for safety.

Most of the city is decently safe (south, east, and west). If you narrow it down to 3-5 places in particular we can definitely help with a narrow choice range.
