    "Iโ€™ve lived here for 2 years. Itโ€™s ISU owned housing so we have most amenities. Itโ€™s near Greek housing so there is a large party scene on the weekends. Itโ€™s also near Lincoln Way so it can be loud."
  • Laryssa M.
    "Its nice to live close to campus but it would be better if it had some grocery store near by. It feels safe and I like that the bars are right across the street!"
  • Jasturm50
    "This neighborhood has homes that are a 12 minute walk from Iowa State University campus, and that have a 3-mile cross country course directly behind them. It is a safe neighborhood on a bus route. Campus town shops and restaurants are a 5 minute walk. While students live in campus town as well, one becomes aware of them only on a few weekend evenings a year. "
