Life in the Neighborhood

As a place to live, University City offers something for everyone. Over 100 acres of public space and parks provide escape from the city streets and places for people to relax, recharge, and spread out. An eclectic dining scene features a blend of longstanding momand-pop restaurants, cuisine from around the globe, and outposts for local and national chains. Options for housing are as varied as the residents, with historic homes, walk-up apartments, stylish high-rises, dormitories, and more inventory on the way. University City boasts a robust arts and culture scene, including theaters, art galleries, and local dance and performance groups. The streets, sidewalks, and transit stations combine to offer excellent options for traveling within the neighborhood or to points beyond, and University City again earned a “paradise” distinction from Walkscore. com for walking, biking, and transit. Active neighborhood associations and community groups inject unique character and civic pride in smaller sub-neighborhoods, and serve as a valuable resource for the community.
