Livi

Somewhere to live in. Someone to live with.

What is it?

Livi is a smart roommate and housing matching platform created by students for students across the Los Angeles Community College District (LACCD), which serves over 200,000 students annually. While LACCD offers access to quality education across multiple campuses, it doesn't currently provide dedicated student housing. As a result, many students are left to find living arrangements on their own—often without tools to navigate affordability or compatibility.
Livi helps bridge that gap by matching students based on lifestyle preferences, routines, and personal habits. Once matched, it also recommends available housing options based on three major criteria: how many roommates they want, their individual budget, and the location of their home college. This ensures students aren’t just paired with compatible people, but also with living arrangements that are practical and affordable. Once matched, students can message each other, compare preferences, and confidently choose both their roommate and their future home.

Livi is more than just a matchmaker — it’s a student-centered solution to one of LACCD’s biggest gaps.
