An Eastover resident's defense

A reader writes:

"I live in Eastover Ridge for a few reasons. First, they have very affordable housing and very spacious rooms. My apartment is a 900 sf single at a very good price. Second, they have great amenities. There are two pools, a good workout facility, and garbage pick-up at your door. Third, most of the residents are rather young and in their 20s. This makes it a fun place to live. Fourth, it is located in a safe area just outside of town. Finally, it is very close to my office and makes for an easy commute every day."

The prices aren't that great. The amenities aren't bad. His third point is probably right. There are always parties over there.

Basically, he's describing a dorm. His basic needs are taken care of, there's plenty of other people around just like him, and it's a short drive to class every day.
