With its campus sandwiched between Los Padres National Forest and the Pacific Ocean, the University of California, Santa Barbara enjoys one of the most unique and scenic collegiate environments you’ll find anywhere. Academically, the university is one of the most highly ranked in the nation, with its superb educational and research opportunities earning it recognition as a Public Ivy institution.
Living around UCSB, odds are good that you’ll be spending a lot of time outside enjoying the sunshine. The university is well known for being bike friendly, with prominent bicycle lanes and trails encouraging pedal power for local transportation. The university also owns miles of the coastline, so hitting the beach is a favorite pastime. For more active excursions, the sprawling mountains and forests just north of campus offer endless opportunities for exploration.
Bordering the west side of UCSB, the Isla Vista community is where you’ll find the most convenient living arrangements. Apartments, condos, and houses can be a bit pricey in this area, but they’ll put you within easy walking distance of the main campus as well as the charming cafes and restaurants surrounding Anisq’Oyo Park.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
