Try Malibu!

Manoa's the same way. While not scenic and picturesque like Malibu, much of the neighborhood consists of homes on the State Register of historic homes:







(The University President's House)



(This house was featured on LOST a few times)

Expect to shell out a couple of millions for any property surrounding the campus. That's why we don't have a house.

I actually don't think Malibu is very pretty in general. There are parts that are pretty, and the Pepp campus is beautiful, but the cost of living is inflated due to the celeb factor. Some homes have ocean views, but others are far off the water. The dumpy, small condos along the highway start at a million...and I really mean dumpy.

Ironically, land is not an issue for the greeks at my school. The university campus is something like 830 acres. Of course, building on that land is another issue. The Coastal Commission fights every new building that the university puts up, which is ridiculous considering the influx of houses perched on stilts and carved into the hillside above the highway are a far bigger danger to the environment and public.
