About Student Housing in Columbia
Columbia, Missouri is the college town in the middle of the state, anchored by the University of Missouri and its flagship campus that pours students into the surrounding streets. Locals call it CoMo, and the student presence is impossible to miss, from the columns on the historic quad to the buzz of The District downtown. The East Campus and North Central neighborhoods hold generations of student houses, while downtown stitches the university into restaurants, music venues, and public squares. Green space is everywhere: the MKT Trail launches from Flat Branch Park and runs to the Katy Trail, and Stephens Lake Park draws crowds for festivals.
