It's great to live at UTC as a student, there's always a lot of people studying and many food shops in the shopping center to study at.

The University town center is good, lots of fast food restaurants and the headquarters to In n' Out burger. UTC has a post office, FedEx, Amazon store, Insomnia cookies and much more. There is also a target, trader joe's and Eureka bar/restaurant for mingling with friends. Some things are pricey but if your smart with your finances and are willing to just outside of the area you can save money. Quick tip if you shop often at target get a target card it will save you 5% on everything and they add up.

It is quiet and convenient to campus, UTC and the park. Some of the apartments have a garage which is a great plus if you can get a unit with one!

The neighborhood is clean and safe. However, since my room faces the road, it does get kind of loud with all the cars driving by, especially when there is someone speeding or a loud motorcycle buzzing by.

no problems with the neighborhood
(just a lot of undergrads in the area, as long as you're okay with that) it's close to UTC and to a lot of Asian food and groceries though, so that's been really great Keep reading

Neighborhood is very quiet. Few fellow students and mostly older adults.

Everything is basically in walking distance, from Trader Joes, Target, a movie theater and plenty of restaurants. Always a lot of activities and foot traffic, but is pedestrian friendly.
