International student accommodation marketplace Student.com has released its Global Student Accommodation Indicator.
The report looks at the most expensive and affordable cities in the UK — and the world — for student housing.
It is based on the weekly rent spent by over 8,000 students, who booked accommodation in 92 cities worldwide through the website last year.
On a global scale, New York, Boston, and London ranked as the world’s most expensive cities for students.
The report also revealed, however, that London aside, the UK has a range of affordable cities. Students in the cheapest UK city even spend 50% less on their rent than the UK national average.
Student.com founder and CEO Luke Nolan said: “It’s evident that the big urban centres around the world remain huge magnets for both international and domestic students. On average, students pay more to live in these cities, but that’s not to say that there aren’t more affordable options available.”
