Pensacola State College has been a major community presence in Pensacola since its inception in 1948, not only as an academic facility but also as a key cultural and economic fixture as well. In addition to the college’s scholarly resources, PSC also operates the local PBS affiliate, and the main campus regularly hosts community events, from local school functions to job fairs to concerts at the Amos Performance Studio. Rental rates around Pensacola tend to be quite affordable whether you are close to PSC or not, so you have a lot of flexibility in deciding what part of town will provide the best balance for your lifestyle. The popular Cordova Mall is right next door to the PSC campus, and several other major shopping centers are nearby as well. Downtown Pensacola is undeniably the most popular area in town for after-hours amusement, whether you want to enjoy a steak dinner at the legendary McGuire’s, take in a Blue Wahoos baseball game at the Maritime Park, or party at the Fish House Deck or Seville Quarter on the weekends. Of course, living in Pensacola, you’re just minutes away from the sugar-white sands and sparkling waters of the Gulf Coast, and a day at Pensacola Beach is always a welcome suggestion.
