About RateMyRoommate

Our Mission

RateMyRoommate creates transparency in shared living by providing a structured, anonymous review system. We help people make informed housing decisions based on real experiences from past roommates.

How It Works

  1. Search for roommates by name, school, or city
  2. Read anonymous, structured reviews from past roommates
  3. Create an account to submit your own reviews

Our Values

  • Patterns over opinions: We focus on repeated behaviors, not single incidents
  • Anonymous but accountable: Reviews are anonymous to the public, but require an account
  • Fairness & balance: Reviewed individuals can flag content and request moderation
  • Behavior-based: Reviews focus on living habits, not personal attacks

Community Guidelines

To maintain a helpful and respectful platform, we prohibit:

  • Crimes or illegal accusations
  • Hate speech
  • Threats
  • Doxxing (sharing personal contact information)
  • Medical or mental health claims
