Old but Good Enough and Some Dorms Are New

The best dorms are usually upperclassmen. South green has less then half air conditioned and east/west green are at least 80 percent air conditioned. Every thing else is fine about them except there is not a lot going on in the lobbies like pool or ping pong. Plenty of parties!

Local Atmosphere at Ohio University

B+

Rural Small Town/College Town Thats Very Fun

I like going to school in a college town. Even though everyone says theres nothing to do because its in the middle of nowhere, theres plenty to do.

Advantages- small easy to get around longest walk around campus is 10 minutes. Lots of nature activities. The college students help out the surrounding area and volunteer a lot. Farmers market, safe, movie theater, walmart, kroger a plenty of other shopping options.

Disadvantages- the town does not have a lot of money so many things are in disrepair or out dated for example bad infrastructure. The townies don't like the party scene and don't have the greatest relationship with the students. The main way townies deal with students is through politics nothing scary like robberies or murders lol like a school in a big city. There are not many high end stores to shop at.

Expensive If You Want Close Housing

Cons- expensive, mostly old, stupid laws to annoy partiers like sound ordinance. you have to get housing a year in advance for the best variety.

Pros- close, some new housing, backyards, no crime, college kids live by you. parking is not to hard to get.
