Excellent Price for Good Quality Apartment

My experience here has been amazing thus far. Management is relatively responsive to resident concerns being that it is university housing. Additionally, the rent is subsidized and covers a lot of utilities. From my own anecdotal experience, it seems that a lot of students have trouble getting housing here. For good reason. This apartment is fantastic—especially if you have children.

Special place for kids

I love the community environment. Is very special place for kids. I think the only think that could be better is the cleaning service of the community areas.

University Village Family Housing

If you’re in a long-term relationship and will be living with your partner, this is by far the best deal you can get on rent in LA.

Pretty good!

So far the experience is good. It’s a very private and comfortable apartment complex and the apartments themselves are well kept. It is heavily geared towards families with children, and there are no washer/dryers in the room. It’s a common laundry room. Maintenance is good. The pictures on the UCLA website are very outdated, and make it look worse than it is.

Close to Essentials and Affordable

The complex is close to major bus lines (SMBBB 8, 17 and Culver City 6/Rapid 6) as well as grocery stores within walking distance.

While price does go up every year, it is much more affordable than living in Westwood and/or nearby places in West Los Angeles.

It would be nice if they updated their apts.

Most affordable housing in the UCLA area, but terrible management

Concerns about the property are ignored, maintenance is slow and bad, and the buildings are dated and poorly built.

The only saving grace: location.

Inexcusably thin walls floors and ceiling, rough old industrial carpet, right next to 405 with windows so thin you'd think you're standing in the middle of the freeway, rat and mice infestation, insecure key card entry to front door, poor plumbing (constantly shutting off water for repairs), major leaks causing extreme water damage are common. Garages are too small for most family sized vehicles despite it being family housing. Laundry rooms are always dirty and the machines are old and ruin clothes. UCLA hates its grad students, especially the ones that can't afford LA rents and are forced to live in student housing. UCLA can afford to make significant renovations but refuses to. Management is prejudiced and unresponsive.
