The decision to move into new student accommodation close to a university is exciting. You have the freedom to relocate to a home of your choice and live with whomever you wish.
Even though living in a residence hall is enjoyable, choosing your own student home or flat provides more comfort and independence. This, however, comes with new responsibilities. And selecting the right home for you involves some difficult decisions. This includes your home address.
Why does the location of student accommodation matter so much?
What makes the location near the top of the list of requests important when choosing which property to move into? The state of the property, your financial situation, and the amount of space available should all be important factors, of course. However, the location should also be considered. And this is why:
Moving away from student neighborhoods in any city can be a quick way to ruin your social life. Location is everything. Your nights out won't be as enjoyable as they once were if you have to manage a limited budget and add taxi costs into the equation. On the plus side, your flat or house is less likely to become a party house, so you won't have to clean up the morning after mess.
Moving to a location further away from the university may make it difficult to get to lectures and classes on time. Particularly if you rely on public transportation. This can have a negative impact on your education. As a result, choosing a property within walking distance of the university can be a great idea.
Accommodation in Cyprus
A 1-bedroom apartment costs 400 euros per month for students who do not want to live in a flat. Please keep in mind that in this case, utility bills are frequently not included in the monthly rent. Renting a dormitory is an option. In general, dormitories in Cyprus may be owned by a company or even the university itself.
The monthly cost of renting a dormitory ranges between 400 and 600 euros, including utility bills. Choosing a dormitory is more appealing for most students due to the time and money saved; however, due to limited availability, one should make the necessary arrangements well in advance.
For those who enjoy interacting with others and making new friends, living in a dorm is an additional option. Sharing will undoubtedly result in significant cost savings. In this case, the monthly rent per person begins at around 250 euros, but you must be willing to share spaces such as the bathroom, kitchen, and living room. Utility bills are not typically included in rent, but there may be exceptions.
