The beloved southern university where “War Eagle!” is just how you say hello

AU Tigers Public Suburban SEC Walkable

The city of Auburn is a picturesque community, both on-campus and off. The university is among the top ranked in the nation, offering superb education and research opportunities, a highly competitive sports program, and a beautiful environment to boot. You’ll find most of the major buildings on campus on the northeast side near the legendary Toomer’s Corner, the unofficial center of the greater Auburn community. The neighborhoods in this section of the city are full of great living arrangement in a variety of price ranges, from budget-friendly apartments to upscale condos and rental houses.

Downtown is full of great restaurants and nightlife hotspots (particularly along College Street) within a short walk of the main campus, making it easy for you to maintain a healthy balance between the university’s academic environment and after-hours downtime. It’s also important to note that living around the northeast corner of campus will also put you very close to Jordan-Hare Stadium, giving you the invaluable benefit of being able to easily walk over and back on game days.
