Hi Neha,
Transportation is also as important as security. Most of students who were living in harbor point moved to south block. So I would say try south block first, get in the waitlist.
South Block
35 Northampton Street
617-534-5800
lots of bu students also live here:

Best thing to do is, call south block and get their application and get in waiting list. I have heard that there is a one year waiting list for south block but we got accepted in just one month so try ur luck.
