The Nest on Dryden

Welcome home to The Nest on Dryden Apartments – the premier off-campus student housing apartments located at Rice University! Our community offers fully-furnished two, four, and five-bedroom apartments, specifically designed with Rice students in... mind.

Each unit comes with an open floor plan, high-quality furniture, wood-inspired flooring, an in-unit washer and dryer, paid utilities, concierge trash and recycling, and a fully-equipped kitchen featuring stainless steel appliances, quartz countertops, under-cabinet lighting, and much more – all included to create the ideal space for both relaxation and entertainment!

Community features include in-unit and common area high speed internet access, a high speed elevator, shared study rooms, a contactless parcel system, and on-site management.

The Nest on Dryden is a short bike ride from the Houston Museum District, Hermann Park, the Houston Zoo, Miller Outdoor Theatre, and many other incredible entertainment and educational attractions. The Nest is also located just a few blocks from the Rice Village, which includes fantastic shopping options like Vuori, LOFT, Tecovas, Banana Republic, and West Elm, as well as delicious dining options like Winfield’s Chocolate Bar, Hopdoddy Burger Bar, Torchy’s Tacos, Rice Box, Bitty & Beau’s Coffee, and Hungry’s!
Rice University is a wonderful school that is located within a very large city. Large cities tend to have higher crime rates, and Houston is no exception. Crime maps show the areas that are relatively better or worse from a crime perspective. We believe that safety and security should be a top priority when choosing where to live off-campus.

The Nest on Dryden is located within the highly sought-after neighborhood of Southgate (one of the safest neighborhoods for off-campus Rice Students). To increase safety and security, the neighborhood maintains a private police patrol. The patrol is manned by Houston Police and Harris County peace officers who keep a 24-hour / 365-day watch – protecting the Morningside Place and Southgate (the area bounded east-west between Kirby and Main Streets and north-south between University and Holcombe).
