My sister went to Stanford and hated it. Sure it’s a nice area if you’re well off but it’s not really college student friendly and housing is sky high.

Hmm. Unless your sister had a family of toddlers and had to get a big apartment, that doesn't sound right. I'm ancient, and when I went you had three years guaranteed campus housing. Soon after I am pretty sure it is four years of on campus housing, precisely because off campus housing is high.

I don't think the Stanford area caters to Stanford undergrads, but its friendly to them. Probably has to do that there is a relatively small percentage of the population that are undergrads in the area, unlike a large state school. The Stanford area is about tech professionals, grad students, think tanks, and then maybe undergrads as a distant fourth.
