I'm a student at the Health Sciences Campus at USC and I've lived here for the past year and a half. The location is wonderfully convenient and the staff are very friendly and helpful. I love that there is a pool and a gym right in the building, and the study space is wonderful as an alternative to the library on campus. I'm also pleased that each room has an in-unit washer/dryer, dishwasher - these conveniences have made living at Currie Hall very easy. Work orders are fixed very quickly, usually within a day or two. I love that I'm able to walk to class in 5 minutes.
The downsides are that the nearby train crossing can be quite loud, and while I fortunately live on the side of the building where the noise is muffled, I can still hear the whistle. Additionally, Currie Hall is located in a food desert, meaning that the nearest grocery stores are still a 10-15 min drive away. If you have a car, this isn't a problem, but if you don't, it can complicate things.
Overall, I have really liked living here and the community has been great - it was a wonderful way to socialize with my classmates during the first two years of my academic program. I highly recommend living here if you're interested in the convenience of being close to campus and want to be immersed in a student community.
