The Social Chico offers student apartments for those attending CSU Chico or Butte College, providing an off-campus lifestyle with nearby shuttles to both colleges. It is described as a really great, very reasonable, and very good place to live, with a host of quality amenities and a lively nightlife. The building is well maintained, the apartments are nice, and the rooms are very large and nice, with a good kitchen. The staff is very professional, polite, responsive, and helpful, quickly answering questions and concerns. The maintenance team is positively driven, resolving requests quickly and professionally. Some reviews note minor flaws. These include a lack of AC in the rooms, which get very hot, and a suggestion for installing ceiling fans. The rental rate information provided can be deceiving, as the quoted amount is for a 12-month term. There was also a minor flaw in the verification process for renter’s insurance, where specific required details were not available until move-in. Overall, however, the process is smooth and quick. The Social Chico is considered the best of both worlds, offering excellence and convenience for a higher standard of student living.
