South University, or "South U", is the strip of restaurants, bars, and shops just east of Central Campus, plus the dense student housing packed around it. This is peak college-town living: you're a block or two from class and surrounded by places to eat at 1am.
A lot of the newer luxury high-rises (think The Landmark, Zaragon) cluster around here, alongside older apartments. It's lively, sometimes loud, and convenient. Summer sublets in the high-rises are some of the most common listings you'll see. People sign 12-month leases and need to fill the summer.
