Fairfield is a lovely little town. There are several people here who live in Fairfield, most no longer associated with the TM movement. I know several people who live in Fairfield who are part of the movement. Their living circumstances vary. There is a shortage of rental housing. You can rent a room with a shared bath through MUM inexpensively. You can rent a trailer at Utopia Park for somewhere around $450-$500. The trailers are not in the best shape and are fairly popular so you might not get one. The town has a shortage of apartments. Rooms are sometimes rented to meditators and sometimes for surprisingly large amounts of money given what you get. Houses can sometimes be rented for a fairly reasonable price and can be purchased fairly cheaply (depending on you POV and your expectations). Why do you want to go to MUM? As a school it is poorly rated. What do you want to learn?
