For a student, proximity to campus is probably a really desirable thing.
I would look for east campus neighborhood or a little bit further than
immediately south of campus. The area west of campus for about half a
mile and for a couple of blocks south of campus is really full of some of
the least interesting students imaginable. I live near Sacred Heart, and
although the proximity to campus is really nice, the gristle-brained
substance-abusing party crowd in close proximity prove an amazing
distraction from serious study.
To the east is a more family-oriented neighborhood.
