CSULB Housing

My daughter is only a high school junior, but she is in the process of building her application list for next Fall. One of her concerns when building her list is the housing question. Really, it’s two questions:

What is on-campus housing like for freshmen?

and

How easy/difficult is it to find safe, affordable, conveniently located off-campus housing for sophomore through senior year?

Any insider perspectives would be much appreciated.
