Find a Ruston Apartment

The town has experienced growth of over 6% between 2010 and 2013, with a present population of nearly 22,000. Louisiana Tech University is found in Ruston, and the student body is one of the most important drivers of the local economy.

Louisiana Tech enrolls roughly 11,000 students each year. There are five colleges at the University, including Applied and Natural Sciences, Business, Education, Engineering and Science and Liberal Arts. There is a residency requirement that requires students to live on campus for two years of their education, but after that requirement is met, many move off-campus. The school is also active in athletics, with the men's Bulldogs and the Lady's Techsters both being well supported by the people of Ruston.

When to Search

Louisiana summers can be hot and muggy, but that doesn't change the fact that this is the best time to apply for an apartment in this town. Ruston apartments will be prime for the picking between June and August, so that is the best time to start combing the ads.

Staying in the Know
