Unsurprisingly, this is also the most popular area for those attending the college, with many basement suites and apartment buildings in the area to cater to students. The sprawling <a href=\"https:\/\/vancouver.ca\/parks-recreation-culture\/queen-elizabeth-park.aspx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Queen Elizabeth Park<\/a> is also close by for weekend picnics and games of disc golf with your classmates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 style=\"color: #7494ac\">Types of accommodation in South Cambie<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>In the South Cambie neighbourhood, students can mostly expect to find older multi-bedroom houses for rent to share with roommates, as well as basement suites within larger houses. To accommodate growing numbers of student renters, there are plenty of newer highrise apartment buildings throughout the area as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 style=\"color: #7494ac\">Average monthly rent in South Cambie<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.zumper.com\/rent-research\/vancouver-bc\/cambie\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">One-bedroom unit \u2014 $2,183<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.zumper.com\/rent-research\/vancouver-bc\/cambie\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Two-bedroom unit \u2014 $4,016<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.zumper.com\/rent-research\/vancouver-bc\/cambie\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Three-bedroom unit \u2014 $5,245<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h4 style=\"color: #7494ac\">Transportation in South Cambie<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Estimated commute to campus: 5-25 minutes<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Depending on where in the South Cambie neighbourhood you live, Langara College could be right outside your doorstep.

Among Vancouverites, the area is best known as being home to the Oakridge Centre mall, which has plenty of stores for all your shopping needs as well as its own Canada Line station, Oakridge-41st. Stately older homes from Vancouver&#8217;s early days are the norm around here, and the scenic tree-lined streets make it a popular place to live for students and long-term residents alike.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 style=\"color: #7494ac\">Types of accommodation in Oakridge<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Oakridge also features mainly older multi-bedroom houses, although there has been plenty of development activity throughout the years, adding low- and high-rise apartments to the mix for Langara College students looking to rent in the area. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 style=\"color: #7494ac\">Average monthly rent in Oakridge<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.zumper.com\/rent-research\/vancouver-bc\/oakridge\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">One-bedroom unit \u2014 $2,432<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.zumper.com\/rent-research\/vancouver-bc\/oakridge\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Two-bedroom unit \u2014  $3,352<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.zumper.com\/rent-research\/vancouver-bc\/oakridge\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Three-bedroom unit \u2014  $4,719<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h4 style=\"color: #7494ac\">Transportation in Oakridge<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Estimated commute to campus: 5-15 minutes<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Oakridge is also extremely close to the Langara College campus, with Oakridge Centre itself a brisk five-minute walk away.

However, the campus is located near some of Vancouver&#8217;s more affordable neighbourhoods. In addition, because the school is right on the Canada Line, homes in Richmond are also a good option for students who can easily take the train to class. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 style=\"color: #fe5f55\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Where do Langara College students live?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Since there is no dedicated student housing at Langara College, students typically live off-campus in the areas surrounding the campus. The five neighbourhoods outlined in this guide should provide a good starting point for your search, but there are many other options across the city with relatively quick commutes to Langara.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 style=\"color: #fe5f55\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">How many people live in Langara?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Langara has approximately 23,000 students currently attending the campus, although not all of these students live close to campus. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 style=\"color: #fe5f55\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">What part of Vancouver is Langara College?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Langara College is located in Vancouver&#8217;s Oakridge neighbourhood, on West 49th Avenue between Cambie Street and Ontario Street. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-css-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<br> \n\n<style> \n\n.button-rethink-way-you-rent { \n  background-color: #3E5B77; \n  border: 5px #26425C; \n  color: white; \n  padding: 10px 30px; \n  text-align: center; \n  text-decoration: none; \n  display: inline-block; \n  font-size: 15px; \n  margin: 5px 0px 20px 0px; \n  cursor: pointer; \n} \n<\/style> \n\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-23097\" src=\"https:\/\/liv.rent\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Digital-Contracts-Cropped-2.gif\" alt=\"Find apartments &amp; houses for rent with the liv.rent app\" width=\"196\" height=\"370\" style=\"float:left;\"> \n\n<h3 style=\"color: #3E5B77;\">Rethink The Way You Rent<\/h3> \n\n<p>Not on <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/liv.rent\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">liv.rent<\/a><\/strong> yet?
