<p>i plan on going to csu long beach and was wondering what towns surrounding the school area are good places to find an apartment? most likely prices ranging between 800-900 a month?? im just trying to find close surrounding towns that are close enough to the campus for commuting</p>
<p>you can try Cypress, Lakewood, or Seal Beach… </p>
<p>whatever you do dont live in those ghetto Gondola apartments, my friend said some lady died there, they had roaches, and took all his security money. !</p>
<p>I live in the area, and honestly, you’re going to have a hard time finding an apartment in that range. Are you looking for just a 1 bedroom? Around here those are around 1,100. Cities surrounding would be Los Alamitos, Seal Beach, Cypress, Cerritos, Garden Grove, Westminster, Stanton…The first four I listed are definitely the best cities…GG, Westminster, and Stanton aren’t as good of areas (depending where in some areas of GG) , so rent will be cheaper there. Good luck!</p>
<p>Oh, the other poster is right, Lakewood could work too…there’s good and bad areas…same with Long Beach, of course.</p>
