Living in university housing vs living in the community

Living in university housing vs. living in the community
Students at universities often have a choice of places to live. They
may choose to live in university dormitories, or they may choose to
live in apartments in the community. In my opinion, it is a better
idea to live in university housing. I think there are more advantages.
First of all, I think it is more convenient to live in campus. You need
not worry about the traffic every day. Especially if your university
campus is located in downtown, you should think about the traffic
jam when you go to your classroom. And it still costs you a lot of
time on the road. On the contrary you can utilize it to improve you
grade. Living in campus still can increase your opportunities to
participate many activities held in campus. You will have more
spare time to take it and it is very convenient for those students
living in campus.
Another benefit is more safe to live in campus. Traffic accidences
occurs everywhere and every day. If you spend two hours every day
on the road, you should be very careful when driving. That is a
dangerous work.
Finally, I still think it`s helpful for me to improve my verbal English
skill. If you live in campus, you have many opportunities to make
more friends in cafeterias, in dormitories, and in playgrounds. When
you contact with each other, you should listen and speak. It will
improve your verbal English quickly. On the contrary, if you live in
an apartment in the community, maybe you even do not know your
neighbors because most people living in apartment have their
family. After hard work, they spend their spare time with their
family.
To conclude, it is a valuable experience to live in campus. It can
help you live an easy, safe and wonderful life.
