<p>I just got married and I was wondering (providing I get in) which housing would you suggest. Should I apply for couples housing, otherwise known as family housing located in Albany I believe in the east and west village, or would you suggest I not go through the campus to arrange my housing. I want an area that is fairly cheap (maybe 1,000 bucks a month) safe, and possibly cleaner than telegraph road. I've visited UCLA and I know that there is no equal in terms of cleanliness compared to Westwood California. But if accepted to Berkeley, I will go there 100% and I just want to avoid bad areas, bad living arrangements, dirty areas, etc. I still want to be close to campus though. Please let me know what I should do. Couples housing, or off campus housing. Maybe if you know the benefits of couples housing it would help.</p>
