Lots of places to eat and shop. Very helpful people. Seems like everything is built right around the campus - thus not having a car (freshman can't anyway) is not a problem. [View Full Report]

Anything you need is either in town or easily accesible by public transit or taxi. [View Full Report]

If you have a car, the world is your oyster in Happy Valley. Without a car, your options are slightly fewer, but still, anything you want to buy is within walking distance. [View Full Report]

The small downtown area that we saw looked relatively average to good. It seemed incredibly close to campus, but still it seemed like a good, safe place to visit. [View Full Report]

There's a small town, but that's about it. [View Full Report]

Looked clean and inviting. Far more wholesome then that of another "large university" with which we're very familiar. [View Full Report]
