Looking for cohabitants

I am arriving in New Haven in a month to join a fellowship at Yale. I am looking for partners to share an apartment with. Where should I look?

I imagine Yale has a resource you might ask about. craigslist and Facebook marketplace/local Facebook pages, maybe nextdoor, (and probably Reddit) are good places to look.

I found the place I’m living now (been here a year and a half) on Roomster. They were literally the first guys I messaged, there’s been essentially 0 issues with any of the 5 roommates, and since we’re splitting 5 ways my rent is obscenely cheap - 370 a month plus utilities in a decent neighborhood in New Haven proper. Obviously not everyone will get as lucky as me, but worth checking out the site. The one downside was that I did have to pay for a subscription to send messages on Roomster, I think it was like $12 a month, but I only needed the one month.

Roomies.com, roomster (have to pay subscription fee), Craigslist rooms & shares in NH area, Facebook market place, and Yale Free, For Sale & For Rent FB group.

Definitely join lots of the Yale off campus housing Fb groups. I was able to snag a studio sublet in Dwight for $1225 from a Yale grad and am renewing when her lease is up.
