Peace of Mind Off-Campus: The Moxie Management Safety Standard

Sending your student to USC is a proud milestone, but navigating off-campus housing can naturally bring up questions about security. At Moxie Management, we believe that a successful academic year starts with a secure, well-managed living environment.

We don't just offer housing near campus; we intentionally select and manage properties that integrate seamlessly with the University of Southern California's established safety infrastructure.

Inside the USC DPS Patrol Zone

Location is the foundation of off-campus security. We focus exclusively on the highly desirable North side of campus, keeping our residents in the heart of the student community. Across our 100 houses and 300 apartments - spanning 28th St., 29th St., 30th St., Ellendale, Magnolia, and Menlo - every Moxie property is strategically situated entirely within the 2.5-square-mile USC Department of Public Safety (DPS) patrol and response zone.

Living within this boundary means your student benefits from:

Rapid Response: Direct access to USC DPS officers who patrol the neighborhood 24/7.

Yellow Jacket Ambassadors: Proximity to strategically placed security ambassadors monitoring key intersections on the North side during peak hours.

Blue Light Emergency Phones: Immediate connection to the USC emergency communication network on their walk to and from campus.

The USC Free Lyft Program (Fryft)

Late-night study sessions at Leavey Library or group projects at Marshall shouldn't mean a stressful walk home in the dark. Because our properties on the North side are located within the designated campus perimeter, Moxie Management residents are fully eligible for the USC Free Lyft Program. Students can request free, safe rides directly to their apartment doors every night, ensuring they never have to walk alone after hours.

Secure Access & Property Features

While we lean heavily on the university's robust safety net, security at Moxie Management begins at the front door. We maintain strict operational standards for all our properties to ensure our residents feel safe and at home.

Gates, smart locks, and cameras: Most properties have gates, smart locks, and surveillance cameras.

Dedicated Management: As a locally operated management team, we conduct regular property walk-throughs and prioritize immediate responses to any maintenance requests regarding locks, gates, or lighting.
