Are you hoping to live near a large group of friends, teammates or sorority sisters at Purdue? Leasing a neighborhood at Rambler Riverfront could be the perfect solution.
One of the standout benefits of Rambler Riverfront as a new community in West Lafayette is the ability to lease blocks of units together, making it easy for you and your friends to live close without all sharing the same apartment.
Curious how this works? Below, we’ll cover everything you need to know, including:
- What are neighborhoods?
- Who leases neighborhoods?
- What are the benefits of neighborhoods?
- How do I secure a neighborhood at Rambler?

What are neighborhoods?
Neighborhoods allow groups to lease a collection of apartments that are typically located next to each other or on the same floor within the community. This setup is ideal for larger groups who want the convenience of living close while still having their own space.
For example, if you and a group of friends want to stay connected throughout your time at Purdue, you could lease a neighborhood at Rambler. Each person can live in their own unit or with roommates, all while being just steps away from one another, creating a built-in community right at home.
Who leases neighborhoods?
Neighborhoods at Rambler are available to any group looking to live close together. We’ve seen interest from sororities, new member classes, campus organizations, athletic teams and large friend groups.
Whether you’re a part of Greek life, a Purdue club or simply want to live near the people you spend the most time with, neighborhoods make it easy to keep your circles close.
What are the benefits of neighborhoods?

1. Live near your friends without giving up privacy
Neighborhoods give you the best of both worlds. You can live near your friends while still enjoying your own bedroom and bathroom. You’ll share common spaces with your roommates, but your extended friend group is just next door or down the hall.
2. Easy access to shared spaces and amenities
Rambler Riverfront offers a variety of spaces perfect for studying, hanging out or gathering before heading to campus or game day. When your group lives in the same neighborhood, meeting up is effortless. With community amenities like lounges, fitness areas and outdoor spaces nearby, everything you need is right at home.
