Apartments for Rent in Davie, FL with Pools

University faculty and graduate students discover ideal housing in Pine Island Ridge, where rental communities surround Nova Southeastern University with housing options beyond typical student arrangements. The neighborhood's mature landscaping creates surprisingly peaceful environments despite proximity to major transportation corridors. Unlike purpose-built student housing, many properties welcome pets with reasonable deposits rather than excessive monthly fees. The community's central feature – the actual ridge that gives it its name – provides rare elevation in otherwise flat Broward County, creating unexpected views and slightly cooler evening temperatures during summer months. When seeking study environments beyond home, the nearby Pine Island Ridge Natural Area offers peaceful walking trails through preserved forest land remaining from Florida's original landscape.

College-adjacent convenience defines Arrowhead Condominiums, where planned community near Nova Southeastern University creates ideal housing for academic households. Most units include essential Florida features from screened patios to community pools addressing practical considerations beyond aesthetic appeals. Though student population creates occasional noise considerations, the strategic positioning between Fort Lauderdale beaches and western shopping districts creates ideal balance without extreme commutes to either environment.

Wooded surroundings create natural beauty throughout Forest Ridge, where this western Broward community offers a unique old-Florida atmosphere. Rental homes typically feature larger lots with mature trees creating natural shade increasingly rare in South Florida developments. The neighborhood provides excellent access to both Nova Southeastern University and I-595 connections to Fort Lauderdale, though the semi-rural setting means longer drives for major shopping beyond basic conveniences.
