The school is surrounded by little stores, groceries, and cafes and everything is walking distance. If you ever get tired of campus food, a variety of food options is just a few minutes away. |

There were museums, other colleges, stores, and other attractions either within walking distance of the campus or easily accessible by public transportation. |

The area immediatly around campus is great. Normal college town atmosphere. Nice restaurants/bookstores/shops. Just don't go east across the park or above 125th and you're safe. |

Morning Side Heights is a safe area of New York City with wonderful restaurants. |

If you go uptown, it gets a little bit better. But, if you head downtown it gets worse. |

I didn't really have much time to look around, but it was mostly residential, and more laid back than Manhatten. |

Nice area of NYC with a lot of little restaraunts. I came into contact with quite a few Columbia students in Morningside Heights so they are definitely spread out in the neighborhood. |

Well Columbia is right next to Harlem, so it was a little "ghetto," but it really didn't seem that unsafe--just the aura of Harlem (oh excuse me, Morningside Heights). |

The area immediately surrounding the campus is sort of boring, but it's right next to a metro stop. There's a drugstore, the bookstore, a couple dives, but not so much else. But it's in a relatively safe part of NYC. Just beyond: go seve |

It's a nice little neighborhood. It's relatively quiet and has a number of cute little shops and restaurants. |
