Your credit is good. Just be able to prove a regular income and you shouldn't have a problem anywhere you go. It's not hard to get an apartment, even at your age.
Besides, it would be discrimination if any apartment complex would turn you down due to your age. Which, in turn, would violate a lot of laws.Trying to get my first apartment? advice?
You are much more likely to get a place if you stay away from big apartment complexes and look for homeowners trying to rent a place in their homes.
There may be people who will judge you and not want to rent to you based on your age. Just show your maturity when you turn in your app. Maybe you could have some letters of reference along with your application - say from a teacher - or a minister - stating that you are mature and responsible. That might help. Good luck!
As long as you have a job you shouldn't have any problems. That's even more important than great credit.
