There is not much to choose, wether you go to a residence or you rent an appartment. Most of the residences are at the campus, mine is quite far but it's in the center. It depends on what you like.

You will find if you go there. One of the good things about my host university is that you can get easily lots of information about events, nightclubs...etc. In Rue Massena there are plenty of clubs, and in Vieux Lille lovely restaurants (let's try la cave aux fioles)
