Default A question for women of the forum

The gist: I'm trying to help my girlfriend find an apartment. (I know the town, she does not.) She would be living solo. Familial resistance to the idea of pre-marital living arrangements prevents her from just crashing at my apartment in a safe neighborhood. (She can't afford the 'nice' parts of town. I barely can.)

My query: What are the general things that are specific to a woman living alone that I should be confirming when reviewing potential apartments? I acknowledge my privilege here as a white dude in that I have literally never had to consider any of this, and seek to remedy this lack of knowledge for her sake. I've googled around, but any more suggestions would be gladly accepted and appreciated.

Currently, I'm already checking into crime reports, sex offender registries, etc. in the general area, lighting and relative closeness of parking lots, distance from bars (she's not a drinker, and this is a party campus), availability and positioning of on-site laundry, and mailbox location. Anything sketchy gets knocked off the list and I move on, simple as that. We have months to figure this out.
