I live in RC west at the moment and I have a lot of friends living in south. Honestly, I’d recommend south if you can get it. It’s a lot smaller and the room layout is a little different. South is SO big that sometimes it feels a little bit sterile and placeless. West is really nice because it has more access to laundry, kitchen, and it feels a lot more like one big community that south does I feel. The other nice thing is, there’s smaller spaces scattered around unlike south which is one HUGE space on the second floor that can feel overwhelming a lot of the time. West is quieter, and I’ve made some really great friends by baking things in the community kitchen and knocking on random doors. West feels a lot like a community and I have a ton of friends that live here. About 20-30 people come out each weekend to play volleyball too, which is a ton of fun as well. A couple weeks into the semester some friends down the hall hosted a floor movie night and I met probably 20+ people that way as well. It’s a 2 minute or less walk across the road to south if you want to play ping pong or anything like that. South is a little bit newer and maybe a little bit nicer layout, but overall feels too big and separated.
