Most IBS students visit Cambridge often, and some choose to live there. There are many eclectic neighborhoods, ranging from those with modest rents to very expensive ones. North Cambridge and neighboring Somerville are especially popular with Brandeis students because they are connected by a short train ride to the campus. Cambridge is also a "walker's city," with easily accessible shopping and cultural attractions.
