Transfer student off-campus housing

Hi, I’m a 20 year old (will be 21 before starting school in fall) transfer student. I’m not very familiar with the living areas in the Long Beach area. Could anyone recommend some SAFE areas for a CSULB female transfer? I don’t really care how far from school it is, as long as it’s safe and there’s transportation to get me to school. I went to SBCC and lived in IV so I’m used to living in an area that’s pretty student-centered. If there is a student-centered living area in Long Beach, that would be great, but again, I’m not too picky about location. For me, the most important factor is my safety. Also, since I will be 21, I would kinda like to be near the nightlife. Thanks! :slight_smile:
