<prompt> Human: How practical is it to find an apartment with no current job, no cosigner, no credit history and not a lot of money?Im 18 and getting kicked out by my parents soon luckily though I have about 5000 saved up from some work I did online when I was in high school. I dont have a car or drivers license and no immediate job prospects. Ive found several 1 bedroom apartments in my area for 600. Would they actually let me sign a lease though with no job? If so how many months up front will I be reasonably expected to pay? I figure I can probably pay 3 months upfront plus the deposit and have enough money left over to pay for utilitiesanything else needed and enough to survive on. Then of course start looking for a job and hopefully find something before the money runs out in a few months. With winter coming my primary focus is just making sure I have housing then find work and then get my license and a car. I understand not having a car will substantially lower job opportunities but theres no way to change that before Im kicked out. I do have a bike for some basic transportation though. No friends or family to stay with or help me out either. Im a pretty shy person and would rather not get an apartment with strangers if I could manage it. Thanks in advance for any help or advice you can give.  <response>: They might if you can show you have a bunch of money saved up, but 6k is going to go pretty fast and apartments know there is a high probability of you running out of money so many would turn you down. I know you said you dont want to live with a stranger, but for someone with very little money and no job, you might not have a choice.
