Priceworthy living in London
Finding the right place to live is essential to the success of your studies and to your quality of live and experience as a student in London.
Currently, the government of London is working hard with its partners and the private sector to enlarge and modernize private rented housing.
Some useful tips for students: if you don’t have a car and no supermarket close by, you will find it quite expensive buying from a corner shop. That is why it’s useful to tent near a supermarket and buy in bulk when possible with other flat mates.
Also keep in mind that everything is more expensive in the center of London, not just rents. Therefore, supermarkets will not be cheap in central London.
Also useful to know is that it’s important to have a night bus close to the flat, so you don’t end up paying large taxi bills each time you come back after a night of partying. Keep in mind that how far away you live from a metro station is more important than the actual traveling distance to your destination.
London is a humongous city. So if you as a student, studying at a school, college or University outside central London, you might find it easy to find accommodation at more affordable prices than in the center of the city.
Take into account that the following neighborhoods, which are the most expensive ones in London are : Bloomsbury, Kensington, Paddington or the West end.
There are different ways to look for housing in London.
One way is to physically go there. If you decide to do so there will be two essential items you will need:
1. A-Z Map of London (£4.95, available from almost any newsagent),
2. A travel card.
A second option is to check out the options the university of your choice has to offer.
Third: Check out what we have to offer you at very competitive prices, taking all the above facts in consideration, we make sure that you get a good deal and a flat with all the commodities you would expect, one that is preferably close to your University, or even at walking distance giving you full benefit and quality of life.
