Off Campus Dining: Isla Vista
Isla Vista is just a short walk from campus and has many eating places to choose from. Although the variety of food is limited (there's more than 3 sandwich places!), Isla Vista has different places to try. From Freebirds! known for their monster burritos, to Silvergreen's for a healithier fix, Isla Vista is a good place to eat off campus because of the location and relatively inexpensive choices.

Living Off Campus in IV
Isla Vista has many different housing options (studios, apartments, townhouses, duplexes). The problem with living in IV is the cost, most apartments are expensive just because of location. Parking on the street is also hard to find and not safe on the weekends because many party-goers can mess up your car.

SB Is a Party School for a Reason
The police enforcement knows that there is underage drinking and it would be too hard to ticket every student on a Friday night. So, as long as you can walk and not sit on the curbs, the cops will leave you alone. Underage drinking and drug use in the dorms is another story. If you are caught in the dorms multiple times you can be written up, then probation, then eventual expulsion.
