context_page_description: The campus of the University of California, Irvine is known for its concentric layout with academic and service buildings arrayed around a central park, and for its Brutalist architecture.
context_section_description: UC Irvine has a number of residential options for students interested in living on campus. Approximately 36% of UCI students are housed in university accommodations; 3,300 live in freshmen residential dormitories, approximately 4,000 other undergraduates live in apartment/theme community housing, and 1,542 living units are available for graduate students and their families. Part of UCI's long-range development plan involves expanding on-campus housing to accommodate 50% of all UCI students.
  On-campus student accommodations include:
  Middle Earth Housing
  Mesa Court
  Campus Village
  Palo Verde
  Verano Place
  Arroyo Vista
  Vista del Campo (VdC)
  Vista del Campo Norte (Norte)
  Camino del Sol
  Puerta del Sol
  On-campus faculty housing is available in the adjacent University Hills development.
  Off-campus housing options vary widely, given a student's preferred living arrangements and budget. However, a common denominator for off-campus apartment housing in Irvine and nearby Newport Beach, Tustin, and Costa Mesa is the fact that most accommodations are maintained by The Irvine Company. UCI offers off-campus housing search assistance and roommate listings through its student housing office.
