Finding the Perfect Off-Campus Housing Near CSUF

When it comes to choosing the perfect place to live while attending California State University, Fullerton (CSUF), making the right decision can significantly shape your college experience. With so many factors to consider—location, price, amenities, and overall vibe—it’s essential to have access to housing options that truly match student needs. That’s why we’ve curated a list of recommended apartments and houses specifically tailored to CSUF students.

How We Select Our Recommendations

Our recommendations aren’t just based on online reviews or marketing claims — they come straight from the voices of CSUF students who’ve lived in these apartments and houses themselves. Through direct feedback from current and former students, we’ve built a clear picture of which housing options provide a truly positive living experience.

That means our list doesn’t just give you a place to live — it helps you find a place where you can thrive during your time at CSUF.

Key Considerations for CSUF Students

From proximity to campus to student-focused amenities, the housing options we recommend have been praised for offering real value. Here’s what stands out:

Convenient Location: Whether you want to walk to campus or have a quick bike or bus ride, we recommend apartments and houses in Fullerton, Anaheim, Brea, and surrounding neighborhoods that balance access and comfort.
Affordable Pricing: We know college budgets can be tight. Our list includes a range of price points to accommodate different financial needs — without sacrificing quality.
Student-Friendly Atmosphere: Many properties cater specifically to CSUF students, offering study spaces, roommate matching, and even social events that help you settle into the Titan community.
Safety and Security: We prioritize housing options in areas that students and parents have rated highly for safety, including those with security features like gated entry, surveillance, or on-site staff.

A Living List, Built by Students

We keep our recommendations fresh. Our housing list is regularly updated based on feedback from Titans — meaning if a new apartment complex opens or a known spot improves its quality and service, we’ll add it. If any location starts falling short, we remove it.

Why Trust Our Recommendations?

We take the time to survey CSUF students who’ve experienced these rentals firsthand. By combining their insights with our research, we’re able to match listings with the real-life needs of CSUF students — whether you're a freshman moving out for the first time or a grad student looking for peace and quiet.
