About Student Housing in Anaheim
Anaheim is the largest city in Orange County and home to a diverse student population attending Cal State Fullerton, Chapman University, and various community colleges. Its rental market is one of the more affordable in Orange County, with rents that undercut comparable Fullerton or Irvine options. The Anaheim Canyon Metrolink station and OCTA bus network connect students to CSUF and other campuses. The city is large and varied — the areas near Disneyland and the stadium corridor are completely different from the residential neighborhoods used by most students.

East Anaheim / Anaheim Hills
