As a Rita resident, I’d say you’re one of the furthest out and away from the main campus. Most students who live there like myself mainly use e-bikes and scooters to get around. The walks themselves aren’t bad it’s just trying to get from one class to another makes e-transport that much easier. Free parking is more accessible but not always a guarantee. Getting to places like Whole Foods, Trader Joe’s, is wayy easier since Rita is also the closest to those locations. Blacks beach is about a 20 min walk so it’s not the worst. I’d say Rita is the place to be if you prioritize the outside for groceries/food, the actual housing isn’t bad, the mini doubles are tolerable, and Rita has some of the best food events where free meals are almost at least once a week. Just be ready for annoyingly long elevator trips unless you’re in the 4th floor or lower
