Uptown Place sits in South Chico — close enough to walk or bike, quiet enough to study.
South Chico is one of the most popular areas for Chico State students who want a real apartment instead of dorm-style housing. The neighborhood along Oakdale and surrounding streets is quiet and residential — families and students mixed together, far from the noise of the Party Zone near campus.
You're also within walking distance of Sierra Nevada Brewery's taproom, and just a short ride from the Safeway and several local restaurants. Bus routes connect directly to campus if you prefer transit over biking.
