About Student Housing in Elon
Elon, NC is a small town of around 12,000 on the west side of Burlington, roughly 18 miles east of Greensboro, built around Elon University, the well-known private school whose leafy, manicured campus defines the community. This is a classic small college town, where students make up a sizable share of the population and campus life spills into the surrounding streets, giving the area an energetic, walkable feel. Because the university is the town's anchor, the rhythm follows the academic calendar, and the compact downtown sits right alongside campus. Elon's spot in the North Carolina Piedmont puts it within easy reach of Greensboro to the west and the Research Triangle to the east, while keeping the day-to-day scale intimate.
Best Neighborhoods for Students in Elon
Downtown Elon
Right alongside campus, this is the prime walk-to-class choice, with student houses and apartments steps from the academic buildings and the small downtown cluster.
BioBus Loop Neighborhoods
The areas just off campus served by the BioBus loops are hugely popular, since complexes on the shuttle routes let you skip the parking hassle.
Burlington
The larger city Elon sits beside opens up a wider selection of apartment complexes and connects back to town by the regional bus line.
