How is this different from Craigslist or Zillow?

SUpost is scoped to the Stanford community rather than the whole Bay Area, so listings are the kind students actually rent: rooms in shared houses, academic-year leases, and quarter or summer sublets — with stanford.edu verification instead of anonymous posting.

Housing in Palo Alto and around Stanford

Palo Alto housing from the community that lives there: rooms, apartments, and sublets around Stanford, downtown Palo Alto, California Avenue, and nearby Menlo Park and Mountain View.

Listings are posted directly by members of the Stanford community — no brokers, no listing fees. Posters who verify a stanford.edu email get a verified badge, and every post shows its asking price and posting date.
