    Super cheap housing, which is great! Still, there are many college kids, and while they do not have trashy yards or anything like that, they do not spend the time/money landscaping and going the extra mile. Many of the homes have a quirky charm as well. Some have off street parking, but many don't.

    I love the night life and the foodie culture in this area! I love the Blue Danube for a cheap diner meal, Little Bar for a casual drink, Kafe Kerouac for coffee and hipster-tude, and Taste of Orient for Chinese, Japanese, Vietnamese, and Thai cravings.
    The quality of housing is low. Because the demand for housing near campus is so high, most owners don't have an incentive to improve their property. Most houses seem like they were built in the early 20th century and it's a mess.
