Of course, these areas tend to congregate around Texas Tech University, as it is the largest school in Lubbock with a great variety of programs for different interests.

There are some parts of Lubbock that are almost entirely dedicated to student housing facilities for Tech students, while other popular areas are simply neighborhoods near the university that offer plenty of good rental options.

Knowing where the college kids live is also helpful to know what businesses are likely to have a larger crowd for certain occasions.

For example, restaurants in these areas will always be packed on game days, bars will be full on the weekends, and clothing stores will be geared to the college-age audience. This is all great to keep in mind to avoid crowds or find the right vibe you want to be a part of.
