Westchester Housing Options for LMU Students

Del Rey and Playa del Rey to the south appeal to students who prioritize beach proximity but carry a premium. Inglewood to the east has the most affordable options with bus access to LMU. Marina del Rey is popular with grad students and upperclassmen who have more to spend.
