Where do Disney World Cast Members Live?

Im interviewing for Disney World next week and I'll be looking for an apartment to live in close to disney. Alot of the cheap apartments close to disney have bad ratings. Do you have any suggestions?

apartments outside of disneyworld
I have friends who did the Disney college prog liked it so much so they stayed some of them live over near 535 http://www.merchantcircle.com/business/Alexandria.Parc.VUE.At.Lake.Buena.Vista.407-465-0717 A lot of people that work at Disney live in this area. Should check it out yourself.
When trip planning for WDW there is a travel forum that I visit: http://www.disboards.com/ They have a section (at the bottom of the page) that is for Cast Members. This is what it says ~ This is a private forum for Cast Members. Please email Doc@wdwinfo.com for access. Why not check it out? There is also a DIS forum called The College Board ~ it's a board for the College age crowd to talk Disney. It covers the College Board as well~ you should be able to get info regarding lodging by visiting there.
If you are interning, there are apartments that are specially for college kids doing internships. otherwise i would suggest looking around in Kissimmee. This will be where you find the cheapest apartments that are close to Disney. If you are open to having roommates, you could look into renting a room in a house. There are some really nice houses near Disney, many that are rented out to tourists by the week or month. I am also certain Disney has a message board of sorts for the Cast Members. You may want to post a housing wanted ad, or maybe find a place for rent on there too. Good luck with your interview! Perhaps we will see you at Disney in September when we are on our trip! :)
If you are doing the College Program disney does provide housing on SR 535 and if not you can live anywhere Im a CM and i live in Metrowest which is about a 20min drive for me and i love leaving far enough just close enough to enjoy universal/seaworld or disney on my days off
