A Different Kind of Address

Living in DTLA vs. Next to Campus

University Park and Exposition Park are convenient for campus access, but Downtown LA offers a different character — live in a well-connected urban environment with entertainment, dining, and transit at its center.

Entertainment

Crypto.com Arena directly across the street, LA Live one block north.

Dining

Bottega Louie, Bestia, Grand Central Market, and dozens more steps away.

Transit

A Metro hub connecting to Hollywood, Santa Monica, Koreatown, and LAX — not just USC.

Professional Scene

Law firms, tech offices, and media companies nearby — useful when balancing work and study.

It makes the most sense for graduate students, faculty, and USC affiliates who spend time on campus but don’t need to be there every day.
